Bo Burnham
"Bo" Burnham was born in Hamilton, Massachusetts on August 21, 1990, with the birth name was Robert Burnham ("Biography"). Bo Burnham was the nickname and stage persona that Burnham takes during his internet videos and live comedy shows. -
My Whole Family...
On December 21, 2006, Burnham released his first video titled "My Whole Family..." along with a second video titled "My 'little' secret..." These soon became very popular, almost overnight, and landed him several deals with major networks, such as Comedy Central ("In 'Egghead,' A New Shel...). The image from "My Whole Family..." was taken from the video itself, which was filmed on the family camera. -
Comedy Central Presents
Bo Burnham was seen on the series "Comedy Central Presents" as the youngest comedian ever to appear on the show as of March 27th 2009. The image is the cover of his self-titled album that was based off of his lineup from the show ("Biography"). -
Words Words Words
Bo Burnham's first tour and second comedy special started on October 16th, 2010. This was the second time that Bo had signed with Comedy Central for a comedy show ("Biography"). The image is from his album that was based off of the show. -
Egghead
Burnham is mainly known for his offensive jokes and satires, but he can also have a caring side. In several interviews, he often shows his caring and introverted side that is almost the opposite of his stage persona (Comedian's Comedian...). His more humorous poems are read during his comedy shows, but in his book "Egghead," he writes about more than just comedy. In a poem titled "You," he writes about the individuality of each and every person, contrary to his shows (Egghead). -
What.
Bo's most recent show, as of the creation of this timeline. Titled, "What.", it was one of his more strange shows. The intro either scares or disinterests many, but it has been published for entirely free on YouTube for anyone to watch. The image is from his poetry session of his show where he reads poems and haikus from his Shel Silverstein-esque book, "Egghead" ("Comedian's Comedian...").
