Biography

Lewis Niles Black (born August 30, 1948) is an American stand-up comedian, author, playwright, social critic and actor.

When not on the road performing, he resides in Manhattan. He also maintains a residence in Chapel Hill, N.C. He is currently the spokesman for Aruba Tourism, appearing in television ads that aired in late 2009 and 2010.
