Jon Comerford's impressive credits include television shows such as CTV's Due South, HBO's Monk, CBS's Star Trek: Discovery, HBO's Call Me Fitz, and ABC's Combat Hospital. Jon is also proud to have worked on Shaw's Bomb Girls and CTV's Cardinal, both of which won him Best Casting honours at the Canadian Screen Awards. He has recently completed work on the sixth and final season of the multi-Emmy nominated series from CBC, Schitt's Creek. On the big screen, his work can be seen in RARE BIRDS, UNLESS, and SEVEN TIMES LUCKY, among others. Comerford has also lent his exquisite eye for finding and shaping talent to the stage, most notably when he worked side-by-side with The Who's Pete Townshend on the 1995 Toronto production of "Tommy". Together they assembled a completely new cast made up entirely of Canadian performers. Jon currently lives in Toronto.
