Mike Farah at an event for The IMDb Studio at Sundance (2015)
Mike Farah is the Chief Executive Officer of Funny Or Die, the premier comedy brand known for its award-winning content in TV, movies, digital, and more. Mike has been with FOD since 2008, starting as its first producer, rising to President of Production, and then taking over the reigns as CEO in 2016. Over the years, he's helped grow the company from a popular website to a full-service independent studio with a uniquely high profile across multiple media, guided by a mission of not only making people laugh, but also inspiring critical thinking and social change. Select credits include two-time Emmy-winner Between Two Ferns, the Peabody Award-winning American Vandal, the iconic television show Billy on the Street, and the pop-culture film phenomenon Weird: The Al Yankovic Story.

Mike is from Ann Arbor, Michigan, and is a graduate of Indiana University. He began his career in entertainment as a food expeditor at The Standard, Hollywood.
