Just Jokin’

As a member of the Wayans family, Damon Wayans has worked with and competed against his famous brothers. His big break came courtesy of brother Keenen Ivory Wayans, who launched the successful sketch comedy television show In Living Color. Damon, who had recently finished a short stint on Saturday Night Live, became a regular on the show in the early 1990s. With his dead-on celebrity impressions and sarcastic wit, Damon had the chops. He left In Living Color and went on to star in several major motion pictures, including The Last Boy Scout and Major Payne. In 2001, he returned to the small screen to play a loving father on the ABC sitcom My Wife and Kids. The show ran through 2005. This month, Damon brings his brand of comedy to Atlantic City for one night only. Though brothers Marlon and Shawn are over-the-top and Keenen quietly brilliant, Damon has made a name for himself doing what he does best: simply being funny.
