About Jim Carrey
James Eugene Carrey (born January 17, 1962) is a Canadian and American actor and comedian, regarded as one of the most prominent comedic actors of his generation. He gained recognition on the Fox sketch comedy series In Living Color (1990-1994) and broke out as a film star with a string of box office hits, including Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, The Mask, and Dumb and Dumber (all 1994). He continued his success with comedies such as Liar Liar, Bruce Almighty, and Yes Man, and later played Doctor Eggman in the Sonic the Hedgehog film series. Although largely typecast as a comedic actor, he won Golden Globe Awards for his dramatic roles in The Truman Show (1998) and Man on the Moon (1999). Born in Newmarket, Ontario, Carrey began performing stand-up comedy in 1977 at Toronto's Yuk Yuk's comedy club and built his reputation as an impressionist before moving into film. He has received two Golden Globe Awards along with BAFTA and Screen Actors Guild nominations.
