Lew Schneider

Who Lew Schneider is

Lew Schneider is an American comedian, writer and producer from Brookline, Massachusetts, who worked both sides of the camera: his stand-up act was featured on HBO's One Night Stand in 1992 and visited the animated couch of Comedy Central's Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist, while his writing career took him from hosting Nickelodeon's Make the Grade to the writers' room of Everybody Loves Raymond — which he joined in its first season and helped run as executive producer, sharing two Emmys for Outstanding Comedy Series. His credits since have included American Dad!, The New Adventures of Old Christine, the Peabody-winning Men of a Certain Age, and executive producing and directing ABC's The Goldbergs.
