Dick graduated from Joliet West High School (Joliet, Illinois) in 1984. He was in numerous theater productions during high school, and was elected homecoming king his senior year in the fall of 1983. Even in high school, Dick tended to use his name as a joke; one day, he dressed in a homemade superhero costume and presented himself at school as "Super Dick". He is good friends with actor Anthony Rapp, who has known him since childhood. He attended Columbia College Chicago and is registered as one of the school's "distinguished alumni". Career: Dick started his comedy career as a cast member on the sketch comedy program The Ben Stiller Show, which aired on the FOX Network from September 1992 to January 1993.

He also starred in a satirical reality television show on the same channel called The Assistant in 2004.

In 2004, while dining at Swingers Diner in Los Angeles, Dick became a producer of The 1 Second Film by donating $111.11 to the non-profit collaborative film project. Later that year at the Toronto Film Festival comedian Tom Green became a producer by donating $120, effectively outbidding Dick, which sparked an ongoing bidding war in which Green and Dick battle for top billing in the film's credits, in which anyone can be listed for a minimum donation of 1 dollar, and both will be prominently featured in The 1 Second Film's feature-length making-of documentary which will accompany the 90 minutes of producer credits. He provided the voice of Boingo Bunny for the 2006 animated movie Hoodwinked! As of October 2006, Dick has hosted his own radio program, The Shit Show, on Howard Stern's Sirius channel Howard 101 every Thursday night at midnight eastern. On May 16, 2007, Dick was roasted on The Howard Stern Show by Artie Lange, Lisa Lampanelli, Reverend Bob Levy, Sal Governale, Shuli, Colin Quinn, Benjy Bronk, Dave Atell, Greg Fitzsimmons, and Yucko the Clown. Personal life: Relationships: Dick is openly bisexual. He says both heterosexual and gay people have told him "C'mon, you know you're just gay." However, he says: "There is such a thing as bisexual. People want black and white. And I enjoy being bisexual."[4] From 1986 to 1990, he was married to Ivone Kowalczyk, with whom he has a son, Lucas (b. 1988). He also has a son, Jacob (b. 1994), and a daughter, Meg (b. 1997), from his relationship with Lina Sved. He is a supporter of animals rights and PETA. He and his band, Bitches of the Century, have played for the PETA Animal Emergency Fund. Public incidents: In 2005, Dick stirred controversy in Edmonton, Alberta, at Yuk Yuk's comedy club when he dropped his pants and exposed his genitals to the audience. Amid the uproar, he was ushered off the stage and the second night was cancelled.[6] On December 2, 2006, he angered an audience at the Improv Club in Los Angeles by shouting "You're all a bunch of niggers!" following an improvised set with comedian Ian Bagg. This was a direct reference to Michael Richards' use of the same epithet to insult hecklers two weeks earlier He later issued an apology through his publicist: "I chose to make a joke about a subject that is not funny, in an attempt to make light of a serious subject, I have offended a lot of people, and I am sorry for my insensitivity. I wish to apologize to Ian, to the club and its patrons and to anyone who was hurt or offended by my remark." On February 2, 2007, he was forcibly removed during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, after repeatedly touching guest Ivanka Trump without her permission. After rubbing Trump's legs and touching her hair, Jimmy Kimmel begged him to behave himself. When Dick asked Trump to "give him a big, fat, sloppy kiss right on the lips" and grabbed her arm, Kimmel called in two security guards. Kimmel and the guards were forced to literally drag an uncooperative Dick off-set. There is speculation that the incident was staged. On May 2, 2007, he made another appearance on Kimmel, which began by showing the clip of him being dragged out of his previous appearance, and then wheeled out, Hannibal Lecter-style, on a dolly. Although he exchanged some dialogue and playful "touching" with Kimmel's other guest, Danica Patrick, the show passed without incident. In August 2007, Dick was cited by Columbus, Ohio police for urinating on a sidewalk and a building. During his weekend in Columbus he was reported to be intoxicated during his stand up performances and groped patrons at a comedy club. Upon his return to Los Angeles, LA County deputies were called to his residence to respond to a complaint that Dick was throwing beer bottles into his neighbor's yard. On August 29, 2007 Dick slapped a reporter in the face outside a Los Angeles nightclub. Drug use: On May 15, 1999, Dick drove his car into a telephone pole in Hollywood. He was charged with possession of cocaine, possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, driving under the influence of alcohol/drugs and hit-and-run driving. He later pleaded guilty to felony cocaine possession and two other misdemeanor charges: marijuana possession and possession of "a smoking device." After Dick completed an 18-month drug diversion program, a judge dismissed the felony and misdemeanor drug charges against him. In 2006, Dick made a widely-publicized appearance at the Comedy Central Roast of William Shatner; he licked the faces of Farrah Fawcett, Carrie Fisher, and Patton Oswalt, and groped and bit the hand of New York Post reporter Mandy Stadtmiller backstage. Dick, who holds that Stadtmiller "slanted" the incident, returned to rehab after the roast. Conflicts with other actors: Comedian and actor Jon Lovitz has long blamed Dick for reintroducing Phil Hartman's wife Brynn to cocaine (after 10 years of sobriety) just five months before she would murder her husband and commit suicide. On July 11, 2007 Dick had a run-in with Lovitz at the Laugh Factory. The club's owner, Jamie Masada, said that Lovitz picked Dick up by the head and smashed him into the bar. Dick had on a previous occasion said to Lovitz he would "put the 'Phil Hartman hex' on you - you’re the next one to die." Lovitz told Page Six, "All the comedians are glad I did it because this guy is an asshole." Dick refuted Lovitz's story on July 25, 2007, on Tom Green Live, saying that Masada was not there to witness the incident, and that in fact he had never even met Masada. Dick said the confrontation happened in the outer lobby, and that the most Lovitz did was grab him by the lapel and throw him against the wall. Lovitz confirmed this version on Larry King Live, adding that he had thrown Dick into a table. |
