Neil Maloney(I)
Neil was born in Westchester county, NY. In high school he braved local
comedy clubs and became a local hit. It was here that he met Rich Tokar
with whom he created a small time successful comedy duo. The two won
small roles in the Chris Elliott film Cabin Boy. Though their speaking
roles were later edited out of the final print of the film, the two
impressed co-star Andy Richter enough that he invited them to audition
for writing jobs with Late Night with Conan O'Brien. Both got jobs.
Neil's androgynous good looks played well against Richard Tokar's
rugged cowboy masculinity and the two became a minor hit during the
show's formative second season. The stress of long hours and poor
ratings helped Neil decide to quit Late Night and go back to school to
earn his MBA. He is currently happily out of show business altogether,
though still writes just in case.
