Early Life
Anthony Jeselnik was born on December 22, 1978, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He grew up in Upper St. Clair with mother Stephanie, father Anthony (an attorney), three sisters, and a brother. Anthony became interested in making people laugh at a young age and would often crack jokes in class. After a teacher laughed at one of his jokes, Jeselnik realized, "If you're smart enough that adults gets it, you can get away with anything."
Anthony attended Upper St. Clair High School, and after graduating in 1997, he enrolled at Tulane University. While attending Tulane, he joined the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity, and in 2001, he earned an English literature degree with a minor in business. Jeselnik moved to Los Angeles in his early twenties, and while working at Borders, he came across a book by comedian Greg Dean and found out about Dean's comedy workshops in Santa Monica.
Anthony's first joke involved an impression of his dad being stung by wasps, and when no one laughed, he decided that physical comedy wasn't for him. After losing his job at Borders, Jeselnik found work as an accounting clerk at Deadwood and performed at open mic nights. Two years after he began performing stand-up comedy, he had a "lightbulb moment" when audiences responded positively to a dark joke. He later included the joke, "My girlfriend loves to eat chocolate," on his first album, "Shakespeare."
In summary, the total wealth of Anthony Jeselnik reflects strategic moves.
