Adam McKay

Adam McKay is an Emmy-nominated American writer and film director. He was born in Denver, Colorado in 1968, graduated from Great Valley High School in Malvern, PA, in 1986, and attended Penn State and Temple universities. He is one of the founding members of the Upright Citizens Brigade improv comedy group and a former performer at Chicago's ImprovOlympic theater. While a member of the mainstage cast at Second City, he wrote and performed in that company's landmark revue, Pinata Full of Bees. In several politically charged sketches, McKay played characters like Noam Chomsky as a substitute kindergarten teacher, and a hapless personnel manager trying to inform a corporate vice president (Scott Adsit) of some disastrous IQ test results without losing his own job. (The latter performance was excerpted in Second City's 25th anniversary compilation.)
