After honing his craft in San Francisco’s thriving comedy scene, Clinton Jackson has quickly moving up the ranks to become one of the best headliners around. He has appeared on many stand-up comedy television shows including his own half hour special on Comedy Central and, most recently, The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson. When not headlining his own shows, Clinton has been the opening act for such notable artist as Aretha Franklin, Diana Ross, Dennis Miller, Chris Rock, and Steven Wright. Clinton has also recorded and released two full length comedy CDs, both of which are regularly featured on satellite radio comedy channels. Following an acclaimed showing at HBO’s prestigious Aspen Comedy Festival, Clinton was cast to co-star as affable science teacher “Mezz Crosby” on the WB’s “Nick Freno: Licensed Teacher”. Subsequent roles as teachers on shows such as the Disney Channel’s “That’s So Raven” and Nickelodeon’s “Taina” further showcase Clinton’s trademark guy-next-door appeal. Clinton has starred in numerous national commercials including Subway, Mitsubishi, Jeep, Circuit City, Old Navy, Century 21, Nissan and AC Delco. In addition to working in comedy clubs he is also very popular on the corporate event circuit, doing shows in which he often incorporates his keen ability to improvise with his audience. The San Francisco Chronicle says, “on stage Clinton Jackson moves as if he were in a boxing match delivering material that is not only hilarious to hear, but brilliantly visual as well. He is good natured, clever, and engaging with a unique point of view, earning him the respect of his peers and giving him a broad cross-over appeal.
