Biography:
Louis Székely, known professionally as Louis C.K., is an American comedian, actor, writer, director, and producer. Born September 12, 1967, in Washington, D.C., he was raised primarily in Mexico City before returning to the United States.
C.K. began his comedy career in the 1980s, performing stand-up and writing for television shows like "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" and "The Dana Carvey Show." He gained wider recognition as the creator, star, writer, director, and editor of the semi-autobiographical FX sitcom "Louie" (2010-2015), which earned him critical acclaim and multiple Emmy Awards.
His stand-up comedy is known for its observational humor, dark and self-deprecating style, and discussions on awkward and uncomfortable topics. He has released numerous comedy specials, including "Shameless" (2007), "Hilarious" (2010), and "Live at Madison Square Garden" (2015).
In 2017, C.K.'s career was significantly impacted by allegations of sexual misconduct, which he later admitted to. This led to the cancellation of his production deals and a significant pause in his professional activities. He has since returned to performing stand-up comedy, though his work remains controversial.
