Seriously funny, Mitch Hedberg, a very funny guy, began his career in 1989 playing open mic nights in southern Florida.
Two years later, in 1991, he moved to Seattle, where, his popularity increased.
However, Mitch Hedberg did encounter some degree of difficulty. He suffered from intense glossophobia (stage fright or fear of speaking in front of crowds), which sometimes led him to perform with his eyes closed. Which you will see in the video from Comedy Central, below.
He achieved national exposure in 1996, performing at the prestigious Just for Laughs Montreal International Comedy Festival, and became one of the show’s most successful American comedians. He was on David Letterman 10 times.
Mitchell or Mitch Hedberg (February 24, 1968 – March 29, 2005) Like so many great comedians, it is believed that he died from a drug overdose of heroin and cocaine. If you are looking for his web page it is MitchHedberg.net.
