Pedro Gonzalez is a Colombian stand-up comedian known for his intelligent humor that challenges stereotypes and offers a unique perspective on dating, work, and life in America as an immigrant. Born in Colombia, Pedro moved to the U.S. at 19 and pursued a Ph.D. in Literature at UCLA with the goal of teaching at a university. However, he discovered stand-up comedy, which he found to be more appealing as it only required one hour of work a day. Pedro writes and performs in his second language, using his comedy to defy stereotypes and broaden his audience’s perspective. He made history as the first Colombian comedian to appear on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.”
