Comedian – Actor – Voice-Over Artist
I’m beginning this bio by promising not to refer to myself in the third person—Scott Henry did this Scott Henry did that.  I mow my own lawn, I fix my own car, and I like to tell my own story usually over a beer. I was raised in the Midwest with Midwest values.  My father was a machinist, carpenter, electrician and dictator, and my mother lived in a bubble of Palmolive and Pledge.  Last Christmas, her credit card bill was late and she thought, “Mastercard must’ve hired a new girl.”  I didn’t have the heart to tell her that girl was probably in Pakistan. Like a good Midwestern boy, I followed in my father’s footsteps and began working as a machinist in a tool and die shop.  One day, my boss stopped by my machine and suggested I go to the open mic night at a nearby comedy club.  Maybe he was encouraging me, maybe he was thinking of firing me.  Either way, that night changed my life.  I got hooked and a year later left Milwaukee behind to travel as a stand-up comedian. In 1999 my performances at the Montreal Comedy Festival led to 3 consecutive network development deals – 2 with ABC and Touchstone and 1 with UPN and Paramount, as well as appearances on Comedy Central, King Of Queens, NBC, and a hosting stint on a show for FX.  I am also a headliner in most major U.S. clubs. I have traveled to over 40 countries performing for our troops, including Afghanistan and Iraq.
