From Daily Show producer to center stage comedian, the spotlight is on for Rory Albanese
If you don’t know Rory Albanese from late night television, you’re about to get familiar with him as a comedian. Although the Rockville Centre native has been doing comedy for 15 years, his time has been happily encapsulated as a comedy writer and television producer. But after saying adiós to his day job, Albanese is jumping into the comedic pond with both feet, as he begins his journey as a full-time stand-up comic.
“As a kid, I was funny. It was something I was good at,” said Albanese. “I didn’t have a natural propensity to do anything else. Even as a kid in class I made choices that were bad just to get a laugh.”
Albanese credits his sense of humor to growing up on Long Island.
