Trevor Noah is one of the most successful comedians in the world and was the host of the Emmy Award-winning 'The Daily Show' on Comedy Central for seven years. Under Trevor, 'The Daily Show with Trevor Noah ' broke free from the restraints of a 30-minute linear show, producing engaging social content, award-winning digital series, podcasts and more for its global audience. In January of 2024, 'The Daily Show with Trevor Noah ' won an Emmy for 'Outstanding Talk Series.' Trevor has also notably served as the Grammy Awards host for six years in a row, with the 2024 show bringing in 16.9 million viewers, a 34% increase from 2023.

Trevor currently hosts a SiriusXM weekly podcast titled What Now? With Trevor Noah . In this podcast, listeners get a chance to hear Trevor like never before. Trevor is joined each episode by celebrities, thought leaders, athletes, and friends to chat about the contemporary topics on everyone's minds. He brings the kinds of conversations that happen behind the scenes to light - full of radical candor, authentic back-and-forths, and honest reactions, with Trevor bringing to bear his classic, effortlessly playful and equally probing style.

Trevor is the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller 'Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood' and its young readers adaptation, released in 2019, titled 'It's Trevor Noah : Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood,' which also debuted as a New York Times bestseller. The Audible edition of 'Born a Crime,' performed by Trevor, remains one of the top-selling, highest-rated, and most-commented-on Audible performances of all time. To date, 'Born a Crime' has sold over 3 million copies across all formats.

Following the extraordinary success of 'Born a Crime,' Trevor's most recent book titled 'Into the Uncut Grass' was released in October 2024 and is a #1 New York Times bestseller. It is a gorgeously illustrated and moving modern fable for readers of all ages about forgiveness, acceptance, and the secret to solidarity.

Trevor's success has also spanned to sold out stand-up comedy shows across 5 continents. His 'Off The Record' World Tour stopped in 28 cities across the US before heading to international destinations, and a set from 'Off the Record' became available as his fourth Netflix stand-up special titled Where Was I in 2023.

Trevor has written, produced, and starred in 12 comedy specials total, including Grammy and Emmy-nominated 'I Wish You Would' for Netflix, which premiered globally in November 2022. True to form, Trevor hilariously shares revelations about learning to speak German, modern communication, and his love for curry.
