VINCENT JAMES BIOGRAPHY

"Vincent James" Pietrafesa was born August 15, 1978 in Port Chester, NY.

I began making people laugh at a young age. My brother and I came from a divorced family, so laughter was what got us through some of the tough times.

Known as the Class Clown, I would constantly make people laugh and put on shows for my friends. I was very active in school plays and usually took on small comedic roles that would get huge laughs. I have been putting on shows since I was eight years old, and have been making people laugh ever since.

High School

Produced, wrote and directed "Larry's Life" – a sitcom about a nerd getting by in High School. I think we had two episodes, but everyone seemed to like it...

College

Graduated from Oswego State University of New York where I studied Communications and Mass Media as well as Broadcasting and Theatre.

Co-Hosted a show called "Movie Stew", that reviewed Movies for WTOP the campus TV station.

President and Member of Sigma Phi Epsilon National Fraternity.

Post College / Present

Played the role of the "Hustler" in Six Degrees of Separation through the Port Chester Council of the Arts.

Performed first show on April 21, 2003 at the New York Comedy Club and it went great...
