Mark Poolos was born and raised in Edina, Minnesota. To start his career he co-starred in two independent films "Attack of the Killer Snow Cone Zombies" and "Joanie Loves Furbies". After his performances in those two films there wasn't a person who didn't know his name. He did more films, some commercials and some theater but it wasn't enough. Mark needed that instant connection. So he began his stand-up comedy career.
Mark is 6'7" and 350 pounds, technically a giant, but a bumbling one. In Mark's routine he weaves real stories about life as a jolly giant and a very unique point of view at life to create his own style of comedy. Mark is a true road dog performing in over 44 states and 5 provinces in Canada. Mark has been on WGN America,heard on SiriusXM Satellite Radio, The Bob and Tom Show, and he won the 2011 Comcast Trial by Laughter competition. Mark will soon release his third full length comedy album.
