Josh Johnson is an Emmy-nominated writer, stand-up, actor, and NAACP award-winner
from Louisiana by way of Chicago. He is currently a writer on The Daily Show, and is a
former writer and performer on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where he
made his late-night debut in 2017. In addition, Johnson is Comedy Central’s ‘most
watched comedian ever’ with 40M+ views to date across their platforms.
As a stand-up, Johnson headlines clubs, colleges, and festivals around the world. In

Johnson’s most recent stand-up special, Josh Johnson: Up Here Killing Myself,

gifted story teller”. Comedy Central released Johnson’s first hour-long special
#(Hashtag) in June 2021.
Johnson’s self-released comedy and music mixtape album Elusive, was described by
Vanyaland as “live stand-up observational humor with musical compositions. Both
elements wade in and out of political and social waters between the two “arcs” of the
multi-genre epic". Johnson also co-hosts the weekly podcast, The Josh Johnson Show
(with fellow stand-up Logan Nielsen).
Johnson’s other credits include, CONAN (TBS), @Midnight, Kevin Hart's Hart of The
