Mitch Hedberg
Comedian
American comic and stand-up comedian who was known for his lazy delivery and surreal one-liners. His third comedy album "Do You Believe in Gosh" was released three years after his death in 2008.
He began his standup career in Florida and soon moved to Seattle and began to tour as a comedian. Early in his career, he made an appearance on MTV's Comikaze.
His on-stage persona and phrases like, 'The depressing thing about tennis is that no matter how good I get, I'll never be as good as a wall,' earned him a notable cult following.
He married Lynn Shawcroft in 1999 and was married to her until his death from a heroin overdose at age 37.
He got his break as a comedian in 1996 after an appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman.
