Al Lubel's Bio

Al Lubel became a lawyer to satisfy his mother and quit to become a comedian to satisfy his sadistic need to torture her. After graduating law school in Florida, Al moved to California, passed the bar exam on his first try and immediately began the practice of standup comedy.



After winning the $100,000 grand prize on Star Search, Al has gone on to appear on The Late Show With David Letterman, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson.

He has also played an attorney on the Blake Clark HBO Comedy Hour and has been featured in the Showtime and PBS special, A Standup Life. He has appeared on all seven episodes of the ESPN series, Bill Walton's Long Strange Trip, and currently has a new documentary out about his life called Mentally Al.

Al's comedy special, Al Alone, earned himself Amused Moose Award Judges Prize as the best one person show in the 2013 Edinburgh Fringe Festival. In addition, Al was nominated for best performer for a solo show by the Barry Awards at the 2015 Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
