Acclaimed TV late night show host, admired stand-up comedian, best-selling children’s book

author, much-in-demand corporate speaker, TV and movie voice-over artist, pioneering car

builder and mechanic, and philanthropist…Jay Leno is widely characterized as “the hardest

working man in show business.”

Jay Leno’s late night television ratings domination included two decades as the host of the #1-

rated “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” – he never lost a ratings year in which he served as

host.

Jay Leno is currently hosting “YOU BET YOUR LIFE” and completed the second season

returning in syndication in Fall 2022. This comedy show is co-hosted by Jay’s longtime

Tonight Show bandleader Kevin Eubanks and features strangers teaming up to answer a series of

trivia questions with the goal of winning thousands of dollars.

Leno, also produces and is host of the CNBC Television series “JAY LENO’S GARAGE” now

in its third season. “Jay Leno’s Garage” explores the world of cars, never forgetting that it’s the

people behind the wheel who provide the real stories. The series debuted in October 2015 and

delivered CNBC’s most-watched first season in network history. New episodes of “Jay Leno’s

Garage” can be viewed on CNBC throughout the year.

The show is an outgrowth of JAY LENOS GARAGE YOUTUBE CHANNEL which Leno

produces and has an international following on the Web and has garnered several Emmy Awards

and nominations for Outstanding Special Class–Short-Format Nonfiction Programs.

His new product line JAY LENO’S GARAGE ADVANCED VEHICLE CARE launched in

December of 2016 and has been well received by the Automotive Industry worldwide.

Products are available on www.lenosgarage.com.

When he’s not on TV, Leno performs more than 100 stand-up shows annually across the country

and internationally; participates in numerous charity and corporate events, does voice-overs for

animated series, pens children’s books, and writes a monthly column in various automotive

magazines. And in his “spare” time (as if he has any), he enjoys working on his collection of

classic cars and motorcycles. In fact, he has built a number of cars, including an acclaimed eco-

car in his eco-friendly green garage.

Leno is the recipient of many honors, including Emmy, People’s Choice, and TV Guide awards,

Harris Poll selection as most popular star on television, the Hasty Pudding Award at Harvard

University, The Mark Twain Prize, a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame, and being the first

person to drive the pace car of all major NASCAR events.

He and his wife Mavis, an ardent human rights activist, live in Los Angeles.
