Born Clinton Page Jackson in Oakland California, Clinton is the youngest of three and the only son. As a child, Clinton Jackson knew he wanted to be a comedian. He told his first joke at "Show and Tell" and has been keeping them coming ever since.

Clinton received his comedy training in San Francisco's thriving comedy scene. As a standup he has appeared on numerous national standup television shows. Clinton released his first comedy CD titled "Clinton Jackson -Nuff Said" on UpRoar Records. Clinton will appear on the seventh season of "Comedy Central Presents" with his own half hour comedy special to air on Comedy Central.

On stage Clinton dances about as if he were in a boxing match delivering material that is as much fun to watch as it is to hear. He is clean, clever and engaging. Clinton by nature works clean on stage, earning him the respect of his peers and a broad crossover appeal.

Following his acclaimed performance at HBO's prestigious Aspen Comedy Festival, Clinton moved to Los Angeles to pursue his other love, acting. He was cast as science teacher "Mezz Crosby" appearing for two season's on "Nick Freno" on the "WB", and has guest starred on "Cybill","Dharma & Greg" and most recently as "Mr. Halloway" on "That's So Raven" on the Disney Channel.

In addition to a career in acting, Clinton's dream is to achieve excellence and permanence in the art of standup comedy.
