I am Adam Auslander and I am a former Ringling Bros clown. (Aren't we all). I am also an actor who has studied with Uta Hagen. And an award winning short film maker -'The Thin Blue Sign'. I have played Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center and balanced a large cross on my chin as Jesus on the Conan O’Brien show. I have helped Vincent D'Onfrio and Kathryn Erbe find a killer on Law and Order Criminal Intent. I have been in a bathroom with Robert DeNiro in the film 'Being Flynn' and done group therapy with John Travolta in 'Old Dogs'. A Miss America once snapped my Ninja Turtle costume crotch. Did I mention Carnegie Hall? I've entertained First Ladies (at the Clinton Inauguration) and an ex president in NJ. For 25 years I provided the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade with stiltwalkers, jugglers, hula hoopists and dog acts. I also trained and managed the make up for the 800 volunteer clowns. My Dad likes to brag that for 10 years I lead that parade on stilts.
I was a TAPNYC Monologue Challenge finalist and am in the Neil Patrick Harris Variety Show teaser which aired on the Super Bowl and the SNL 40th Anniversary show. When I'm not at home yelling at my kids, or getting yelled at by my wife, I have entertained pediatric hospital patients. My hobbies are needlepoint and crocheting, not really, actually it's keeping my biodieseled 1991 Mercedes with 280,000 miles on it, on the road.
Recent principal credits include a commercial with John Mayer, dying on The Blacklist (sorry SPOILER ALERT), The Late Late Show with James Corden and the Netflix film Okja directed by Bong Joon Ho. I produced the award winning screenplay Finding Distance sizzle reel. Other cool credits include, The Detour(TBS), Wonderstruck w Julianne Moore (Amazon), Horace & Pete, Letterman, Rosie O'Donnell, Pomp Duck & Circumstance directed by David Shiner, Naked and Hate Free directed by Mark Ruffalo, and the Big Apple Circus Clown Care Unit.
