Biography
Mike Birbiglia transformed personal neuroses into a multi-platform comedy career spanning stage, film, and streaming. Born June 20, 1978, in the US, the American comedian, actor, director, producer, and Emmy-nominated writer has written and performed six solo shows worldwide: Sleepwalk With Me, My Girlfriend's Boyfriend, Thank God For Jokes, The New One, The Old Man and the Pool, and The Good Life. Each enjoyed successful runs on and off Broadway and was adapted into Netflix comedy specials. Behind the camera, Birbiglia wrote, directed, and starred in Sleepwalk with Me (2012) and Don't Think Twice (2016). His acting credits span films like Trainwreck (2015), The Fault in Our Stars (2014), Popstar, and A Man Called Otto, alongside TV roles in Orange Is the New Black and Billions. He hosts the podcast Mike Birbiglia's Working it Out. As a screenwriter and actor, Birbiglia works across comedy and dramatic genres, bringing specificity to character-driven work. A Gemini born under life-path 33 (the master teacher), his voice—conversational yet precise—mirrors that sign's ability to articulate internal contradiction. His work reflects the US comedy landscape of the 2010s, when solo performers could reach global audiences via streaming platforms.
