Born and raised in Paterson New Jersey, Rodney’s comedy career started capriciously in 1988. While in the Air Force, stationed at Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton Ohio, he accompanied a fellow airman, an amateur comic, to a comedy club. His friend bombed, but Rod took the stage and received thunderous applause. It was instant addiction. Roney has since gone on to kill ‘em in clubs from New York to California. In New York City, Rodney is regular at all the best clubs including Comic Strip Live, Gotham Comedy Club, Stand Up New York and Carolines On Broadway. On television, Rodney has been seen on many shows including most recently HBO’s “Bad Boys of Comedy,” AXS TV's, "Live at Gotham," CBS’ “Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson” and Comedy Central’s “Premium Blend.”Look for more high profile appearances in the very near future and beyond from this funny, dynamic performer!
