Noah has had a lot of success and still has his best years ahead of him. In an interview with Harvard Business Review in 2018, the South African native talked about how he became a comedian. “I always felt an innate joy making people laugh,” he said. “I always loved performing. And then somebody paid me to do it—as a profession. But I loved it before I earned any money, so I think it was always going to be my natural course.”
Noah’s success as a comedian led to him getting the gig at The Daily Show. And that opportunity led to other projects, including hosting The Grammys in 2021 and 2022. Noah is also starting to build his film resume. He recent had roles in Coming 2 America and Black Panther.
