As a Boston University student at the tender age of 19, the Boston Herald hailed Elon Gold as "a comedy star on the rise." Five years later, Comedy Central selected him and three others (including Dave Chappelle) to be profiled in their "Pipeline" series of future comedy stars. Today, his star continues to rise as Gold has established himself as one of the top comedians in the country. This fall, he will return to television and star opposite Pamela Anderson on the Fox comedy "Stacked" where he portrays Gavin, co-owner of "The Stacks" bookstore.

Growing up in the Bronx, Gold has emerged into a naturally gifted stand-up comic, sketch performer, actor, and writer. Having discovered at a very young age that he had an uncanny ability to do impressions, Gold went from mimicking his teachers to mastering truly unique voices like Charles Grodin and Howard Stern. In fact, Gold got to do Howard on Howard Stern's show and Grodin on Charles Grodin's show. At 17, Gold began his stand-up career and, one year later, Gold's impression-infused routine led to his first television appearance on MTV's "Half-Hour Comedy Hour" where he appeared alongside Chris Rock, Ray Romano and Drew Carey. By the time he was an undergraduate student at Boston University -- where he graduated cum laude with a B.A. in Economics -- Gold was splitting his time between his studies and touring comedy clubs and colleges across North America. In 1993, Gold was invited to perform at the world-renowned Just For Laughs Montreal International Comedy Festival, where he appeared in a Showtime Network special hosted by the late John Candy. This Montreal appearance, along with his work on the MTV sketch series "Comikaze", led to Gold's first television series on the ABC sketch show "She TV" which was hailed by Time Magazine as one of the year's Top Ten Shows.

His success in the comedy world provided the perfect segue to his career as an actor. His credits include a cameo in the Steve Martin movie, "Cheaper By The Dozen", playing Mary Richards' boss ("the new Lou Grant") on the highly-rated "Mary & Rhoda" movie on ABC, a regular performer and writer on Dana Carvey's ABC sketch comedy series, star of the short-lived WB series "You're the One "and host of the Cable Ace Award-winning Nickelodeon series "Inside Eddie Johnson". Gold's career has taken a couple of dramatic turns with performances in the independent features "Restaurant" and "Origin of the Species" where he starred alongside Amanda Peet and a guest appearance on NBC's "Las Vegas".

In 2000, Gold combined his stand-up, writing and acting skills to develop and star in the Columbia TriStar pilot "Good as Gold". Along with his co-creator and co-writer Ira Ungerleider ("Friends"), Gold assembled an all-star cast including Mary Tyler Moore as his mom, Elliot Gould as his father and Jonathan Silverman as his brother. Although the pilot did not become a network series, Gold learned the value of mining his real life for comedic inspiration. With that lesson learned, Gold took another one of his life experiences -- he and his wife living with his in-laws -- and pitched a series idea that soon found a home at Paramount and NBC. With "Frasier" star Kelsey Grammer executive producing, feature film star Dennis Farina starring as his father-in-law, and multiple Emmy Award-winning actress Jean Smart starring as his mother-in-law, once again Gold mined comedy gold from his miserable existence. "In-Laws" was only on NBC for a season, but he's already taking another stab at a successful sitcom with a pilot script he wrote, that is currently in development for next year.
Gold splits his time between New York and Los Angeles where he lives with his wife Sacha, son Brandon and daughter Audrey.
