Jeff Garlin on youth and standup

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on September 18th, 2007

The LAT profiled Jeff Garlin because he wrote, directed and stars in “I Want Someone To Eat Cheese With.”

The piece is capped by this quote on why he continues doing standup comedy:

“It keeps me creative,” he says. “It is like the equivalent of other people doing crossword puzzles. It keeps me young and vibrant. I started doing stand-up when I was 20 years old. I never thought one of the big motivations to do it would be to keep me young.”
