Perhaps best known for his offbeat delivery of “the fake news” on NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” for five seasons, Norm Macdonald is a major comedic presence. The Quebec City-born actor and comedian began performing in comedy clubs across Canada in the mid-80’s. He eventually moved to Los Angeles where he became a writer for “The Dennis Miller Show” and later for the ABC sitcom, “Roseanne.” It was in 1993 when Macdonald joined the cast of NBC's "Saturday Night Live" after being discovered by producer Lorne Michaels during one of his stand-up routines. Once cast on the show, he ended up doing impressions of Bob Dole, Larry King, Charles Kuralt, David Letterman and Burt Reynolds. His most notable position on SNL however was his three-year stint as anchor of Weekend Update beginning each of his newscasts with his trademark line, “And now the fake news.” After leaving SNL in 1998, he starred in his own sitcom, “The Norm Show” which ran for three seasons on ABC followed by his second sitcom, “A Minute with Stan Hooper” which aired on FOX in 2003. In addition, he has done several motion pictures including Billy Madison (1995), Milos Forman’s Academy Award-nominated The People vs. Larry Flynt (1996) and Dirty Work (1998). His voiceover work includes the role of “Lucky” in Eddie Murphy’s Doctor Dolittle films and the character of “Death” on FOX’s “Family Guy.” His sketch comedy album, Ridiculous was released by Comedy Central Records in 2006. Currently he is a regular contributor on Dennis Miller’s radio show and just this past summer, he was a participant on “The Comedy Central Roast of Bob Saget.” Macdonald continues to perform his stand-up comedy to sold-out audiences throughout North America and will be appearing at the River Rock Casino Resort in January, 2009.
