Brian Scolaro was born in a log cabin in Eggplant, West Virginia in 1876. And was visited during the night by Three Shephards. They beat the shit out of him for six hours. Brian went to High school in the Philipines, where he spent four years learning to become an asshole. He received notoriety when he discovered a cure for "sight" by poking people in the eyes. Brian was killed by a large bear when he was sixteen, but he did not let that stop his acting dreams. He moved to Hollywood in 1872 and now sells garbage under a bridge.

Brian Scolaro has his own half hour special "COMEDY CENTRAL PRESENTS: BRIAN SCOLARO" (2009) and has also done stand up on "LATE NITE WITH CONAN O'BRIEN" (2008), COMEDY CENTRAL'S "LIVE AT GOTHAM" (2007), and "COMICS UNLEASHED " (2006). He is most famous for being Stuart on two seasons on FOX's "STACKED" with Pam Anderson and Christopher Lloyd (2005-06). Before that, Brian moved to Hollywood to be a regular castmember on NBC's "THREE SISTERS" (2001-02). He has also acted in SHOWTIME'S "DEXTER," NBC's "HARRY'S LAW," HBO'S "LIFE AND TIMES OF TIM," TNT's "MEN OF A CERTAIN AGE", DISNEY'S "WIZARDS OF WAVERLY PLACE," and Bob Odenkirk's "THE BROTHER'S SOLOMON."

Brian was born on October 18th, 1973 in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. The doctors claim he was very stinky.

After being the lead in several school plays in Grammar school and High school, Brian planned on acting as a career. Also, his love of Bill Cosby and George Carlin pushed him to do his first stand up show -which was at Stand-Up N.Y. Comedy Club in Manhattan on January 14th, 1992. He was a freshman in college.

His college career at the State University at New Paltz was highlighted by a multi-media attack. His N.A.C.B. (National Association of College Broadcasters) nominated television situation comedy "Earp and Whitney" made him a mini-celebrity on campus. His popular FM radio comedy program "That Damn Show" made him a cult hero for the neighboring high schools. And his weekly column in the school newspaper "This Week's Crap" made him an enemy among school leaders.

Upon graduating college in '95, Brian became an intern for The Comedy Channel (now Comedy Central) and also for "Real Sex" on HBO. His job was to stand on a corner and radio the producer if cops were coming when they were shooting people fucking in an alley. He quit. He turned to stand up comedy full time.

At the Boston Comedy Club, Catch a Rising Star, Dangerfields, The Comic Strip, and Stand Up NY, Brian honed his stand-up skills. His manager, Vincent Nastri, discovered him at Gotham Comedy Club in NY in 1995.

His first real acting job was a series of Tv Commercials for "Wendy's." Soon after he was cast by famed director Sidney Lumet (Dog Day Afternoon, Serpico) to appear as a snobby television producer on A&E's "100 Centre St."

Then came the "Caroline's Comedy Club" show that kick started everything. Here he was grabbed up by agents and asked to do The New Faces Show at Montreal's Just For Laughs Comedy Festival in '99.

He rose up in the stand-up comedy scene in New York by becoming a regular performer at the toughest and most prestigous club in Manhattan- The Comedy Cellar. Nightly he worked with (and sometimes followed) comics like Dave Chappelle, Dave Attell, Louie CK, Chris Rock, Jerry Seinfeld, Patrice Oneal, Ray Romano, Lisa Lampanelli, Jim Norton, Bill Burr, Greg Giraldo, Sarah Silverman, and Colin Quinn.

In 2001, off of a video taped audition from New York, he was cast by writer Steve Koren (Click, Bruce Almighty, SNL, Seinfeld) to be a regular cast member for the NBC pilot "Everything But the Girl" with Tiffani Theissen. The pilot was beat to the line up by SCRUBS.

But NBC cast him right away on the second season of "Three Sisters" along side Dyan Cannon. Brian moved to Hollywood for his first regular TV sitcom role and began acting on network television.

Next, Brian was cast by Director/Producer Tom Shadyak (Ace Ventura/Nutty Professor) to be in a popular ABC pilot "Platonically Incorrect" with Tom Everett-Scott. When that failed to get on TV, Brian was offered a holding deal with CBS in 2004.

Then in 2005, Brian was then cast as "Stuart Miller" on the FOX sitcom "STACKED" by Steve Levitan (Just Shoot Me) and Jeffrey Richman, where he worked alongside cast members Pamela Anderson and Christopher Lloyd. "Stacked" ran for two seasons.

Brian has recently acted on Showtime's "Dexter", NBC's "Harry's Law", TNT's "Men of a Certain Age", Bob Odenkirk's film "The Brothers Solomon", a recurring character on the Disney Channel's "The Wizards of Waverly Place", and many roles on HBO's "The Life and Times of Tim".

He has done stand-up on "Late Nite with Conan O'Brien" and ABC's "Comics Unleashed." And he was finally invited back to the cable channel that started his career (as an intern) and did stand-up comedy on Comedy Central's "Live at Gotham." Two years later completed his half hour special "Comedy Central Presents: Brian Scolaro" special in New York City in early 2009.
