BiographyNathan Joseph Fielder (born May 12, 1983) is a Canadian comedian, actor, writer, director, producer, pilot, and activist, known for his awkward persona and for creating works that blur the line between reality and fiction. He has also become recognized for activism, including his Holocaust-awareness clothing brand Summit Ice Apparel and his advocacy for aviation safety. His accolades include an Independent Spirit Award and a WGA Award, as well as three nominations for a Primetime Emmy Award. In 2023, he was featured on Time's list of the 100 most influential people in the world.
Fielder was interested in comedy from a young age, and as a teenager was involved in his school's improv group, which also featured fellow comedian Seth Rogen. He majored in business at the University of Victoria, which influenced his later work. After attending a comedy course at Humber College, Fielder started his career as a correspondent for CBC's This Hour Has 22 Minutes for the segment series Nathan on Your Side from 2008 to 2009. Fielder wrote and appeared on the American sketch show Important Things with Demetri Martin (2011).
In 2013, Fielder co-created and directed the Comedy Central parody reality show Nathan for You, in which Fielder stars as a slightly more awkward version of himself, who offers advice to struggling businesses. The show ended in 2017 and was followed by the HBO docu-comedy The Rehearsal (2022–present). Fielder also executive produced the HBO docu-series How To with John Wilson (2020–2023). In 2023, he and Benny Safdie created his first scripted show, Showtime's The Curse, in which he stars, alongside Safdie and Emma Stone.
