Dunham has been called "the most popular comedian in the United States" by Time Magazine, and has been named to Forbes' Celebrity 100 list of most powerful entertainers three years running. His entourage of signature characters includes Walter, the grumpy retiree; the beer-swilling, NASCAR-loving and resolutely red neck Bubba J; the furry and manic Peanut; José Jalapeño, the spicy pepper from South of the border; the bumbling skeletal Achmed the Dead Terrorist; the almost-as-dead, long-lost son of Achmed, AJ; and Peanut's own ventriloquist dummy: Little Jeff.

David Letterman," and has also made many cameo appearances across television and film, from the Emmy®-winning comedy series "30 Rock," to "Dinner For Schmucks," starring
Steve Carrell and
Paul Rudd. Most recently, he lent his voice to the animated feature film "Nut Job," which also stars
Liam Neeson and
Brendan Fraser.
Named the top-grossing live comedy act in the world in 2009 and 2010 by Pollstar, the concert industry trade magazine, Dunham has sold out stadium-sized shows across three continents, from the United
KINGDOM to Sydney, Toronto to Copenhagen. In late 2010, Dunham released his autobiography, "All By My Selves: Walter, Peanut, Achmed and Me," which immediately landed on The New York Times best-seller list. On November 28, Dunham kicks off his first ever residency in Las Vegas at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino with his new show "
