Jake Baker has featured or headlined at some of the most famous comedy clubs throughout the United States. In 2012, recognizing free speech, he performed for US military in Afghanistan and Kyrgyzstan.

A native Angeleno born in the backseat of a car, then later ruthlessly transplanted to rural Missouri, the road to entertainment for Jake Baker was natural. Growing up on Redd Foxx and Richard Pryor records and Eddie Murphy cassettes, Baker’s adolescent was spent making anybody and everybody laugh, and later became his most defining characteristic throughout his youth. His friends and family finally goaded him onstage at a local comedy club and a new life and career took hold at the millennia.
