Billy Eichner Biography
Billy Eichner is a comedian, actor, screenwriter, and television host known for his high-energy, pop culture-focused comedy. Eichner first gained recognition as the host and writer of "Creation Nation: A Live Talk Show," a stage show in New York. This live performance experience established the foundation for his comedic persona.
Eichner is the star, executive producer, and creator of Funny or Die's "Billy on the Street," a comedy game show that aired on multiple platforms. In the show, Eichner roams the streets of New York City, engaging pedestrians with trivia questions, often joined by celebrity guests. The show earned him two Primetime Emmy nominations, one Daytime Emmy nomination, and a Dorian Award nomination. "Billy on the Street" aired for three seasons on Fuse and two additional seasons on truTV, with short-form web episodes and viral clips, such as the segment "For A Dollar," continuing to circulate on social media platforms like TikTok.
Eichner expanded his television presence by joining the cast of the sitcom "Parks and Recreation," portraying Craig Middlebrooks. He also appeared in the FX series "American Horror Story: Cult," and returned for roles in "American Horror Story: Apocalypse" and "American Horror Story: Double Feature." Additionally, Eichner starred in the Hulu original series "Difficult People" with Julie Klausner.
In film, Eichner co-wrote, produced, and starred in "Bros," a romantic comedy recognized as the first gay romantic comedy from a major Hollywood studio featuring an entirely LGBTQ+ principal cast. Eichner is the first openly gay man to write and star in a major studio romantic comedy. The film has resonated with audiences, particularly within the LGBTQ+ community. In voice acting, director Jon Favreau selected Eichner for the role of Timon in "The Lion King," a role he reprised in "Mufasa: The Lion King."
Beyond his work in entertainment, Eichner is an advocate for civic engagement and LGBTQ+ representation. He launched the initiative "Glam Up the Midterms" on Jimmy Kimmel Live, collaborating with Funny or Die and several late night hosts. Eichner also revived "Billy on the Street" to partner with Will Ferrell in a get-out-the-vote campaign, achieving record-breaking online engagement. He released a memoir, "Billy on Billy," as an audio-only book, offering insight into his personal journey. Eichner also participated in The Public Theater's 40th Anniversary Benefit Reading of "The Normal Heart," highlighting his ongoing commitment to LGBTQ+ storytelling and theater.
