Aaron Karo

Aaron Karo (pronounced KAY-ro) is an author, comedian, and screenwriter whose latest novel Galgorithm was published in May 2015 by Simon & Schuster. His previous books include Ruminations on College Life (Simon & Schuster), Ruminations on Twentysomething Life (Simon & Schuster), I’m Having More Fun Than You (HarperCollins), and the critically acclaimed young adult novel Lexapros and Cons (Farrar, Strauss and Giroux), which has been translated into three languages. Karo has headlined such venues as the Best Buy Theater in New York, the Wilbur Theatre in Boston, and the House of Blues in Chicago. Comedy Central Records released his debut stand-up album Just Go Talk to Her in 2008. Aaron Karo presents an all-new stand-up event inspired by his latest book, “I’m Having More Fun than You” – a hilarious exploration of bachelor life from the alcohol-fueled pursuit of chicks in bars to sophisticated advances on defenseless bridesmaids. As his thirtieth birthday approaches, Karo observes the women around him growing increasingly desperate to tie the knot and finds himself equally determined – to remain uncommitted. What follows is an outrageous account of one man’s quest to party like a rock star, get laid with abandon, and silence his critics in relationships with the rebuke “I’m having more fun than you.” Karo is a bestselling author and creator of the celebrated email column “Ruminations.” He has performed on “The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson,” and his latest stand-up album “Just Go Talk to Her” was released by Comedy Central Records. “I’m Having More Fun than You” was published by Harper Collins on September 15th, 2009. He has performed on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, and in 2010 he starred in his own one-hour Comedy Central special Aaron Karo: The Rest Is History. His third album I Need to Tell You Something was released in 2012, and his fourth album Charm/Offensive was released in October 2015. Karo’s career began in September 1997 when he wrote a funny email from his freshman dorm room that eventually spawned his celebrated column Ruminations. In September 2012, Karo concluded the column after fifteen years, having grown his readership from twenty friends to 100,000 subscribers around the world. He has developed sitcoms for 20th Century Fox, MTV, Warner Brothers Television, CBS Television, and a project titled Ruminations for The CW. He is currently writing pilots for Comedy Central and CBS. Karo was born and raised in Plainview, New York, and graduated magna cum laude with a Bachelor of Science in Economics from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.
