Biography

Paul Elia is an American comedian and actor who grew up in Metro Detroit and landed his first professional part on the television series Detroit 1-8-7. He was born in San Diego, California, and his family settled in Southfield, Michigan, in 1994. He came close to finishing an English degree at Wayne State University and had thought about law school before he chose comedy instead. Once he arrived in Hollywood in 2011, he put together his own projects and auditioned for films and television shows even though he lacked steady representation. His debut comedy special, Detroit Player, appeared on YouTube in 2024, made with help from his close partners Matt Rife and Bassem Youssef, who he has said strengthened his comedy career.
