Malachi Nimmons

Malachi Nimmons Jr. is a talented actor, comedian, and improviser hailing from Chattanooga, Tennessee. Although he displayed an early interest in acting, his stage presence took a hiatus until his early twenties. In 2006, he embarked on a formal journey in the arts by enrolling in the Professional Actors Training Program at Chattanooga State Technical College, completing the program in 2008. That same year, he ventured into stand-up comedy, impressively placing third in the "Chattanooga's Funniest Human" contest.

In pursuit of his comedic dreams, Malachi relocated to Los Angeles in 2009; however, his aspirations were abruptly interrupted by a devastating apartment fire in 2010 that forced him to return to Tennessee. Undeterred, he seized a significant opportunity in November 2011 when he was invited to audition for Chicago City Limits, the longest-running comedy revue in New York. His talent shone through, leading to his hiring, and he made the move to New York City in January 2012.

Malachi's versatility is evident in his appearances across various platforms, including commercials for Comedy Central, Nickelodeon, South Park, and the Sony Entertainment Network. Additionally, he showcased his comedic chops on season 16 of TruTV's "World's Dumbest." Today, he resides in Queens, New York, continuing to make his mark in the world of comedy and performance.
