Craig Ferguson is a multi-faceted Scottish entertainer, known for his work as an actor, comedian, writer, and television host. He gained significant recognition through his hosting stint on "The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson" from 2005 to 2014. Demonstrating his adaptability and depth in the entertainment industry, Ferguson transitioned to hosting the syndicated game show "Celebrity Name Game" from 2014 to 2017. His prowess as a host earned him two Daytime Emmy Awards. Furthermore, he delved into historical discourse through hosting "Join or Die with Craig Ferguson" in 2016, and later showcased his ability to engage audiences in a digital format with a six-episode web show titled "Couple Thinkers" alongside his wife, Megan Wallace Cunningham, in 2017. In 2026, he began hosting the CNN series "Craig Ferguson: American On Purpose," which explores American identity and history as part of the USA's 250th anniversary celebrations.
Expanding his portfolio, Ferguson explored voice acting, providing character voices for several films, including Gobber in the "How to Train Your Dragon" film series and Owl in "Winnie the Pooh".
