Jon Rudnitsky, a comedian known for his quick wit and flair for impressions, was born and raised in the suburbs of New Jersey. From an early age, Jon discovered that his talents lay far from the sports fields of his childhood. While his peers engaged in athletic pursuits, Jon found his niche entertaining others, beginning with Mrs. Ryan, the lunch lady, who enjoyed his impressions of their teachers and celebrities during recess. As Jon grew, his passion for performing only intensified. Throughout his teenage years, he honed his skills by participating in high school musicals and seizing every chance to hit the stage at open mics, particularly at The Comic Strip in NYC. Despite struggling academically, Jon's natural talent shone through during his audition for the USC BFA Acting Conservatory, earning him a place at the prestigious program on the West Coast. While at USC, Jon's comedic prowess was recognized when he received the John Ritter Memorial Award For Outstanding Comic Performance, a testament to his unique gift for comedy.

Jon’s time in Los Angeles was filled with endless opportunities to refine his craft, regularly performing at renowned comedy venues such as The Groundlings, The Laugh Factory, The Comedy Store, The Improv, and the Ice House. In his senior year, he triumphed in the Laugh Factory’s Laugh Bowl College Comedy Competition, cementing his status as a promising figure in the comedy scene. Jon's talents eventually led to his television debut on CBS’s "Criminal Minds," marking the start of his journey into mainstream entertainment.
