Amir Yazdani Bio
Amir was born in the 1980's in South Baltimore, Maryland. He had two dreams as a young boy, to become a neurosurgeon or a stand up comedian. He chose the latter.
He co-hosted D.C. Shorts International Film Festival - Zoom Filmmaker Talkback. He has opened for Tony Woods, Dante Chang, Dustin Diamond, Kevin Farley, and Adam Gabel. His humor ranges from one-liners and puns, to what it was like growing up, to repeated heartbreaks. His energy and heart are infectious. His jokes will make you groan, and giggle (because he's probably staring at you with his trademark handsome, charming, poo-eating grin), and you can't help but find him lovable, adorable, and charming.
Pre-pandemic, he produced and hosted Belly Laughs @ Summers Sports Bar’s Showroom in Arlington, VA every Friday night. There’s was free open mic show every Friday night with the exception of the last Friday of every month. There was monthly $5 show featuring local and nationally touring headliners and feature acts. You could also have find him performing at open mics and on shows all over the D.C., Maryland, and Virginia area, or grocery shopping, or filling up his car with gas.
