Peter Gaulke

Peter Gaulke's comedy career began while he was a gymnast at UCLA. His unique form of physical comedy led to absurd and hilarious routines performed at sports arenas across the United States. Peter's work and reputation as a stand-up comedian rose in the early days of the "comic boom" in Los Angeles, California, where he made dozens of TV appearances including "An Evening at the Improv," "Late Night With Conan O'Brian," as well as numerous comedy specials for MTV, Comedy Central, and Showtime. After a series of TV writing assignments, including "Married With Children," Peter was hired as a staff writer for Saturday Night Live in the '90's. His success at Saturday Night Live springboarded into writing a number of successful major motion pictures, including Say It Isn't So for the Farrelly Brothers, Black Knight with Martin Lawrence, and Ice Age the Meltdown to name a few. After writing and directing the post modern documentary, We Gotta Get Buscemi, Peter wrote and executive produced the movie Drunk Parents starring Alec Baldwin and Salma Hayek.
