Craig Ferguson entered the world of late night comedy following a diverse and eclectic career that encompasses film,
television and the stage. Since taking the helm of the Late, Late Show on January 3, 2005, the show has set all-time viewer
records in the five years that it has been on the air.
Born in Glasgow, Scotland, Ferguson got his start in the entertainment industry as a drummer for some of the worst punk
bands in the U.K., a profession he held for several years. Following his musical stint, he began bartending in a local pub in
Glasgow where he was introduced to Michael Boyd, the artistic director of The Tron Theatre in Glasgow, who persuaded
Ferguson to give acting a go. After several low paying acting gigs, Ferguson discovered he had a knack for comedy and was
soon the star of his own BBC television show, The Ferguson Theory.
The Drew Carey Show, playing Drew Carey's boss, Nigel Wick, from 1996-2003. Since coming into his own on the "Late
Late Show with Craig Ferguson" and winning his first Emmy nomination in 2006, Craig has seem to become the topic of
conversation within the media and a growing trend of success in 2010.
