David Nieker comedy is uncommon and unflinching, landing punchlines that span an emotional distance between his heroes, Rodney Dangerfield and Mr. Mike. I get no respect but I try to fight back with my wit,” he says. "I’m proud to finally be able to defend myself with my words.” 

Since 2010, he's been busy doing that and what he's wanted to do his whole life—making audiences laugh at stand up comedy at clubs and festivals throughout the United States.  

As an undergrad at the University of Illinois, Chicago, he first walked on screen 1986 as Goon #2 in Goldie Hawn's football classic, Wildcats. He also trained at the early ImprovOlympic with legends Charna Halpern and Del Close. After graduation, he embarked on an introverted creative path as an advertising copywriter at ad agencies and Fortune 500 companies in Chicago, Seattle, Miami and Los Angeles. He became a member of SAG-AFTRA in 2014, and has since been seen in sketches on Jimmy Kimmel Live and CONAN, as an imposter on To Tell The Truth, and as a Woodsman in David Lynch's Twin Peaks: The Return, 2017. He’s also been featured in a Justin Timberlake music video, and in a commercial for Mercedes-Benz.
