Jon Stewart is a funny man who dons several hats. With his witty and sarcastic style of hosting talk shows and a keen sense of humour that never fails to elicit laughter from his fans, Stewart is one of the most loved comedians today. He started his career as a stand-up comedian and soon branched into television as a comedy show host. His success on the small screen prompted him to try his luck at films and he went on to act in several movies as well. Born as Jonathan Stuart Leibowitz, the young boy was a mischief maker and class clown from an early age. Famous for his ability to make others laugh in school, he decided to make a career out of his passion. He adopted the stage name ‘Jon Stewart’ and started performing regularly at the Comedy Cellar. He worked hard on his comedic style and soon landed a job as a writer for the television show ‘Caroline's Comedy Hour’. He also began hosting shows and within a couple of years developed his own show, ‘The Jon Stewart Show’ broadcast on MTV. Over the years he has made the transition to direction and production as well by opening his own production house Busboy Productions.
