Biography[]
Hiram made many TV appearances throughout his career. Hiram started his stand-up career in 1978, when Jerry Seinfeld passed him on an audition at "The Comic Strip." He went on to be a regular in the New York and New Jersey area, eventually emceeing at Dangerfields for five years, while continuing to work the circuit. Hiram moved west in the late eighties and has mined a healthy career playing parts in Sit-Coms and film roles. He still did well in Vegas, where, in addition to working the major casinos, he also headlined a two-year stint in the David Cassidy original production of "The Rat Pack is Back." He also worked frequently as a popular roast comedian. His theatrical training in off-Broadway has paid dividends, but he was most at home interpreting comedy, be it live or on film. Larry David has used him consistently over the years, from Seinfeld (1989) to Curb Your Enthusiasm (2000), as well as the ill-fated Sour Grapes (1998).
