Dan Mintz (born April 1, 1981; Anchorage, Alaska) is an American comedian, writer, and actor. He is known for his extremely deadpan delivery, keeping his eyes fixed straight ahead and never looking toward the camera or audience. He is one of a few stand-up comedians (such as Henny Youngman, Steven Wright, Demitri Martin and Mitch Hedberg) to use non sequitur one-liners in his act.[citation needed]
He landed his first writing job at Comedy Central's Crank Yankers, then worked on Last Call with Carson Daly.[1] He's been writing for The Andy Milonakis Show, Human Giant, Lucky Louie, and Important Things with Demetri Martin.[2]
On May 15, 2007, Mintz appeared on Late Night with Conan O'Brien. His standup comedy appeared on the comedy compilation CD Comedy Death-Ray, and a special for Comedy Central Presents aired on March 28, 2008.
Currently, he voices Tina on Bob's Burgers and was a consultant writer for Jon Benjamin Has a Van. He resides in Los Angeles, California.
