About me
Zach Sherwin is a Los Angeles-based comedian and the creator and host of The Crossword Show, in which a panel of comedians and other luminaries solves a crossword puzzle live onstage. His writing for the web series “Epic Rap Battles of History” has received numerous Emmy and Streamy nominations and awards, and the Epic Rap Battles in which he’s co-starred have amassed well over half a billion YouTube views and an RIAA-certified Gold record. His own online videos have been viewed many millions of times, and his other writing credits range from The CW's “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” to MAD Magazine. As a performer, Zach has appeared on various excellent but long-cancelled cable talk shows, as well as on “America’s Got Talent,” which to all appearances is thriving. Zach has also worked extensively as a TV audience warm-up comic, including at the last three years of the Scripps National Spelling Bee finals, and he is proud to be a published New York Times crossword constructor.
