Rob Corddry Detailed Biography
Rob Corddry was born in February 4, 1971 at Weymouth, Massachusetts. He is the older brother of comedian Nate Corddry. Rob Corddry has graduated from Weymouth High School in Weymouth, Massachusetts in 1989. Then he went to the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. He planned to study journalism when he arrived in Fall 1989. He stuck with the major for just two days. Although his main subject was English, he focused much of his attention on drama classes and plays including Torch Song Trilogy, Ten Little Indians, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Romeo and Juliet, and Reckless.
He moved to New York in January 1994. He eventually landed acting jobs, including a year-long tour with the National Shakespeare Company. He got training at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in NYC. He performed regularly with the sketch comedy group "Naked Babies" and spent two years with the sketch comedy group "Third Rail Comedy". Corddry's first notable television appearances were on Upright Citizens Brigade on Comedy Central from 1998–2000. In 2002, he was asked to audition for The Daily Show and was accepted. In October 2005, his younger brother Nate also made his first appearance as a Daily Show correspondent.
In January 2006, Corddry's wife Sandra appeared with him on a Daily Show segment in which he discussed his obsession with having a threesome. His wife gave birth of their first child, daughter Sloane Sullivan Corddry, on July 3, 2006.
Rob Corddry also hosted the 10th annual Webby Awards ceremony on June 12, 2006.
His pieces for The Daily Show frequently included references to Boston, Massachusetts, which he considers to be his hometown. Some have described his comic style as "a common Masshole". He became one of The Daily Show's popular correspondents.
On February 9, 2006 Rob Corddry hosted an episode of The Daily Show due to the absence of Jon Stewart. On August 15, 2006, Corddry said "I've got like a week and a half left, all bets are off", and then on August 21, 2006, Stewart remarked that Corddry's last day on The Daily Show would be August 24, 2006. Corddry appeared throughout the week, once filing a report from inside a toilet bowl supposedly on board an aircraft transporting John Mark Karr, and another dressed up in a 1970s fashion; Stewart remarked, "It's his last week, and really, we're trying to come up with terrible things for him to have to do."
During that last show on August 24, Rob Corddry aired a self-produced tribute to his four years on the show, going out, as Stewart said, with a "poop joke".
Rob Corddry left The Daily Show to work on other projects, including The Winner, a 2007 TV series.
On September 10, 2007, Corddry made a guest return to The Daily Show as the senior public restroom correspondent.
On October 17, 2007, Corddry made a cameo appearance as himself at a rehab center that Samantha Bee was filming a report in.
His other notable roles include the title character in "Blackballed: The Bobby Dukes Story" (2004) and Mac, Ben Stiller's best friend in "The Heartbreak Kid". He has also made guest appearances in "Old School", "Blades of Glory", "Semi-Pro", "I Now Pronounce You Chuck" and "Larry and Failure to Launch".
On television, Corddry has also performed in a "Curb Your Enthusiasm" episode entitled "The Seder" as a sex offender who moves into Larry David's neighborhood. He has acted in two episodes of FOX's "Arrested Development" as Moses Taylor, an actor who plays "Frank Wrench", an obsessively by-the-books detective on a fictional television series Wrench.
