Biography

NYC legend, comedian, host, and international entertainer MURRAY HILL is Mr. Showbiz. He's a relentless shtick slinger, larger-than-life personality and freewheeling ad-libber. Catch him as a recurring character in two new series: Amy Schumer's "Life & Beth" (Hulu), Bridget Everett's "Somebody Somewhere" (HBO) and on episode 5 of Paul Feig's "Welcome To Flatch" (FOX).

The New York Times anointed Murray "Downtown's New 'It' Boy." He's been included in "Best of New York" lists in the Village Voice, Time Out, PAPER, New York Magazine; inducted into PAPER's Nightlife Hall of Fame; selected as OUT magazine's Top 100 influential performers twice; included in New York Magazine's "Fifty Most Iconic Gender Benders of All Time," PAPER's "Top Ten 'It' Boys in NYC Nightlife History," and named one of the Top 12 gender-bending performers in NYC by Time Out.

Murray was awarded The New York Voices commission from Joe's Pub at The Public Theater and debuted ABOUT TO BREAK directed by Scott Wittman. He's been flexing his comedy chops touring with comedian/singer BRIDGET EVERETT, COUNTESS LUAAN from The Real Housewives of New York, and Bally's in Las Vegas. He was the first guest on AMY SCHUMER's podcast on Spotify. He debuted solo stand-up shows at JUST FOR LAUGHS and EDINBURGH FRINGE FESTIVAL. For ten years, he toured the U.S. as the original host with burlesque superstar DITA VON TEESE and hosted her historic debut sold-out Australian tour. He's performed two seasons at The Sydney Opera House starring in CLUB SWIZZLE which went on to tour major festivals.

He starred in his own pop culture show on MTV's digital network entitled SHOWBIZ and was the U.S. Showbiz Correspondent for Channel 4 in UK.
