About Steven Wright
American stand-up comedian, actor, writer and film producer
Steven Wright is an American stand-up comedian, actor, writer, and film producer. He is known for his dry, slow delivery and his distinctive voice, which shape the ironic, philosophical, and often absurd style of his comedy. His material often uses paraprosdokians, non sequiturs, anti-humor, and tightly built one-liners. He is especially associated with jokes that turn on contrived situations and unexpected reversals.
