Biography

Pauly Shore, an American comedian and actor, became known for leading roles in 1990s comedies. He was born in 1968 and grew up in Beverly Hills, where his parents worked in comedy, and he made his stand-up debut at 17.

He voiced Bobby Zimuruski in A Goofy Movie (1995) and its sequel, An Extremely Goofy Movie (2000), and produced, wrote, directed and starred in the mockumentary Pauly Shore Is Dead (2003).
