Toronto born and bred, worked at an animation studio designing characters, locations and props for animated shows like Magic School Bus, Franklin the Turtle and the Ace Venura cartoon until making comedy full time. Have since performed a gala at the Just for Laughs Festival in Montreal, been nominated for a Canadian Comedy Award for Best Male Standup and named Best show of 2006 in Toronto's NOW magazine. Not bad.
“He's always been a nimble physical comic... but his act has matured and gone to astonishing places. Nussbaum can find the funny in seemingly incongruous things. He's stand-up comedy's great lateral thinker… But to fully appreciate his art, you’ve got to witness him live.†NOW Magazine Toronto
“I’m not much of a laugher, which may be odd for a comedy reviewer… Still, about once a decade I’m good for a bout of giggles I can’t stop…. The routine gave my face a real workout. Laughing hurts. At least it can rest for another 10 years.†The Georgia Straight
