Allan Havey

Biography

Allan Havey is an American actor and stand-up comedian. He broke into comedy in New York City in 1981, and his first national exposure came on Late Night with David Letterman in 1986; he returned to that program often during the 1980s and 1990s. After David Letterman moved from NBC to CBS, NBC considered Havey as a possible replacement for the Late Night desk, though Conan O'Brien got the job. In 1989 HBO Downtown Productions picked him to host Night After Night with Allan Havey on The Comedy Channel, a cult favorite that lasted three years and mixed celebrity interviews, news, film clips and on-location bits. His films include Internal Affairs (1990), Comedian (2002) and The Informant! (2009). On television he guest starred on Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm (1999) and Louie, led Fox's Free Ride in 2006, and played Karl Allard on Billions from 2017 to 2023. Two One Night Stand appearances earned CableACE Award nominations.
