Mark Viera

Who Mark Viera is

Mark Viera is a stand-up comedian from the Bronx, known to fans as the Latin Assassin, whose act draws on his family, his kids and grandparents and growing up in the Bronx, along with dead-on impressions. His one-hour Showtime special Tales of a Nuyorican was followed by a sold-out tour with singer Marc Anthony, and his special Mark My Words is on YouTube. He made his network debut on NBC's 30 Rock, has done stand-up on Martin Lawrence Presents 1st Amendment Stand-Up, Russell Simmons Presents Stand-Up at the El Rey, BET's ComicView and Gabriel Iglesias Presents: Stand-Up Revolution, and performs with the New York Kings of Comedy.
