Jon Henry Benjamin (born May 23, 1966, in Worcester, Massachusetts), known professionally as H. Jon Benjamin, is an American actor, voice actor, and comedian. He is best known for his voice-over roles as Jason and Coach McGuirk on Home Movies, as well as various roles on the sketch comedy series Important Things with Demetri Martin.
Benjamin's comedy career began when he was around twenty-four in Boston where he was first in a comedy duo with Sam Seder, then a member of Cross Comedy, a comedy team led by David Cross. For around the first seven years of his career, Benjamin almost exclusively worked in groups rather than independently. Afterwards, his independent work remained more experimental, rejecting traditional styles of stand-up comedy in favour of playing with the medium.
Benjamin's live projects include the Midnight Pajama Jam, a show performed in New York City with Jon Glaser, and Tinkle a show combining stand-up comedy and live music co-hosted by Todd Barry and David Cross....
