David Jerome was born on New Year's Eve, and the party has continued on for 43 years. He squeaked through school on charm and good looks, finishing in the top 70% of his high school's graduating class. He was voted Class Clown/Best Sense of Humor in High School which he says got him invited to all the parties, but none of the girls would make-out with him.
After high school it was off to a lucrative career in the fast food industry frying taco shells at Taco Bell. It was about then when he started his comedy writing career and tried his luck at open mike night at The Comedy Store. He could see that this was a long hard road and left the stage for his computer keyboard where he wrote jokes for Jay Leno and other comedians, joke services, and newspapers. The highlight of Mr. Jerome's joke writing career came in the Spring of 1991 when he won, and was asked to appear on the ABC late night talk show, "Into The Night" with Rick Dees.
