Frank Hvam

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Frank Hvam (born September 12, 1970) is a Danish stand-up-comedian.

Hvam was born in Viborg and grew up on a farm in Ørum Sønderlyng. Shortly before completing training as a veterinarian, he dropped out to try his luck as a comedian.

He is known for his performance as the "geek" Kenny Nickelman in the Danish sitcom Langt fra Las Vegas and as a writer and performer in the Pythonesque comedy Casper og Mandrilaftalen.

His collaboration with Casper Christensen on Casper og Mandrilaftalen was the beginning of a writing partnership that has yielded a number of comedy productions, including a Danish version of the British Shooting Stars and four seasons of Klovn, a sitcom heavily inspired by Larry David's Curb Your Enthusiasm.
