Chris Cotton Bio – Chris Cotton Wiki

Chris Cotton born Christopher Edward George Cotton, was an American stand up comedian, actor, and writer. He was also the co-founder of the Production company, Center City Comedy LLC. He was a former Co-Host of the Artie Quitter Podcast with Artie Lange.

Cotton began performing Stand Up Comedy in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. His Stand Up Comedy Set topics included pop culture, current events, being married, and growing up in the city. According to Chris Cotton’s bio on Zanies Chicago, he worked as a Digital Creator at Comedy Central, while co-starring in Comedy Central: Every Damn Day. He also worked with many of the best national headliners including Artie Lange, Keith Robinson, Godfrey, Bret Ernst, Tommy Davidson, Kevin Hart, Judah Frielander, and Hannibal Burress.

As a writer, Cotton wrote and acted in numerous sketches, television shows and contributed to developing commercial advertising.

Cotton often performed at the Raven Lounge in Center City in Philadelphia, a venue that he helped create with fellow comics Conrad Roth and H. Foley in 2007. They created the venue with the aim of helping provide a platform to comedians of color.

He told Philly Voice in 2015 in a discussion about the Raven Lounge and other venues in the Philadelphia area, including the Laff House, “This is not a race statement, but it does have a lot to do with it. Basically none of the black comics or newer comics knew about this club. And it was the kind of thing where, we’re all working here, we don’t want you to come ‘cause we don’t want anybody else taking the spots.”

Cotton also recently released his memoir, What My Dad Did: My Theory On Joke Writing, back in August. His book showcased Cotton’s rise in the ranks of the comedy world in addition to telling the story of his father, Henry S. Cotton Jr.
