Biography
Jonah Meyerson, an American actor and television producer, made his screen debut as a child in Wes Anderson's The Royal Tenenbaums (2001), playing Uzi, the older son of the character played by Ben Stiller.

He also appeared in Little Manhattan (2005), The Matador (2005) and House of D. After stepping back from acting, Meyerson moved into television production, interning for Saturday Night Live, 30 Rock and Onion News Network while studying at the University of Pennsylvania, where he wrote for and performed with the Mask and Wig Club. He later worked as a post-production assistant on Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and The Michael J. Fox Show, and since 2016 has been a production assistant, associate producer and segment producer on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
