Jim Breuer was born on June 21, 1967, in Valley Stream, New York, where he was also raised. From a young age, he showed interest in creative storytelling, often writing stories and articles during his school years. These early pursuits laid the foundation for his multifaceted entertainment career.
Although Jim Breuer has taken on roles as a film producer, actor, radio personality, voice actor, and screenwriter, he is best known for his work in comedy. His major breakthrough came when he joined the cast of the iconic television show Saturday Night Live (SNL) from 1995 to 1998. One of his most memorable characters during his SNL tenure was Goat Boy, a role that contributed significantly to his rising popularity.
In addition to his television work, Breuer gained widespread recognition for his role in the 1998 cult classic stoner comedy Half Baked, in which he starred alongside Dave Chappelle. The film further established his image as a comedic actor with a distinctive style.

Beyond television, Breuer enjoyed considerable success in radio. He was a frequent guest on Opie and Anthony and went on to host his own SiriusXM show, Fridays with Jim Breuer. In addition, he toured comedy clubs and colleges across the United States—an experience that inspired both a documentary titled More Than Me and a four-hour DVD called The Jim Breuer Road Journal, both released in 2010.
Building on his passion for storytelling, Breuer released a memoir titled I’m Not High on October 5, 2010, where he shared personal anecdotes, life experiences, and behind-the-scenes insights into his career.
