biography:
Joseph "Joe" Mande, 16 Mart 1983 tarihinde Albuquerque, New Mexico'da dünyaya gelmiş, çocukluğu ve ilk gençlik yılları St. Paul, Minnesota'da geçmiştir. Komediye ve yazarlığa olan ilgisi onu Boston'daki prestijli Emerson College'a yönlendirdi ve buradan yazarlık alanında Güzel Sanatlar Lisans (BFA) derecesiyle mezun oldu. Mezuniyetinin ardından New York'a taşınarak stand-up komedi sahnelerinde yeteneğini sergilemeye başlayan Mande, ilk geniş çaplı bilinirliğini 2009 yılında yarattığı ve o dönem internet kültüründe büyük ses getiren mizahi blogu "Look at this F*cking Hipster" (ve ardından gelen aynı adlı kitabı) ile kazandı.

Stand-up sahnelerindeki kıvrak zekası, dijital dünyadaki bu erken başarısı ve sivri dilli mizahı ona televizyon endüstrisinin kapılarını araladı. İlk başlarda Comedy Central yapımlarında ve çeşitli gece şovlarında görevler üstlenen Mande'yi ekran önünde geniş kitlelere tanıtan rol, hit NBC komedi dizisi "Parks and Recreation"da canlandırdığı Pawnee'nin internet bağımlısı, absürt yerel sakini Morris Lerpiss karakteri oldu. Aynı dönemde yakın arkadaşı Nick Kroll'un sevilen skeç şovu "Kroll Show"da (2013-2015) hem yazar olarak görev aldı hem de Todd karakterine hayat verdi.

Joe Mande'nin asıl parladığı ve Hollywood komedi sektöründe vazgeçilmez bir isme dönüştüğü alan ise televizyon yazarlığı ve yapımcılığı oldu. "Parks and Recreation"ın son sezonlarındaki yazar kadrosunda gösterdiği başarının ardından; Aziz Ansari'nin ödüllü dizisi "Master of None" ve Michael Schur'un felsefi durum komedisi "The Good Place" gibi televizyon tarihinin en zeki ve sevilen modern dizilerinin senaristliğini ve yapımcılığını üstlendi. Bu süreçte sadece kamera arkasında kalmayarak kaleme aldığı dizilerde zaman zaman eğlenceli konuk roller ve seslendirmelerle de izleyici karşısına çıkmaya devam etti.

Televizyon kariyeri hızla yükselirken stand-up köklerinden hiçbir zaman kopmayan başarılı komedyen, 2017 yılında yayınlanan absürt, ironik ve formül yıkan Netflix özel gösterisi "Joe Mande's Award-Winning Comedy Special" ile kendi komedi tarzını geniş kitlelere bir kez daha kanıtladı. Günümüzde ise eleştirmenlerden tam not alan ve sayısız Emmy ödülü kazanan hit komedi dizisi "Hacks"in ortak baş yapımcısı ve yazarı olarak televizyon dünyasındaki en verimli ve parlak dönemlerinden birini geçirmektedir.

Keskin gözlem yeteneği, absürt mizah anlayışı ve modern popüler kültüre dair ince eleştirileriyle tanınan Joe Mande; EC Archive gibi titizlikle derlenen kapsamlı dijital dizi ve sinema koleksiyonlarının komedi departmanında hem zeki bir yazar hem de eğlenceli bir oyuncu olarak imzasını taşıyan unutulmaz projeleriyle daima kalıcı bir yere sahip olmaya devam etmektedir.
