Jesse Cohen was born in Salem, Massachusetts and raised near Houston, Texas.   Jesse graduated from The University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor of Arts and he earned a Juris Doctor from the University of Miami School of Law.  Jesse believes that the least interesting thing about him is that he is a practicing litigation attorney.  He would prefer to tell you that as a stand-up comic, Jesse produces, hosts and performs in shows throughout South Florida.  Jesse is also professional artists.  He exhibited his paintings at Art Basel in 2021, completed an artist residency at DaVenzia Studio, Atlanta, Georgia in 2022 and is a residence artist at Northwood Art & Music Warehouse in West Palm Beach.  His paintings are presently on exhibit and for sale at Cugini Wine Room in Lake Worth Beach.  He can be found on Instagram at @JesseTheCohen
