Oh hey there, I'm James Tison. This is the website I use to post pictures of my head and brag about my various accomplishments in the hopes that casting directors, TV executives, podcast producers, or anyone with money and power will be convinced to give me some of that money and power.

I'm a gender non-binary stand-up comedian, actor, writer, and producer. I've been featured in the NY Times, Out Magazine, and Broadway World. Broadway World called me "Blisteringly Funny," I've appeared off-Broadway and on network television, and my mom thinks I'm great. 

I spent several years working as a freelance production coordinator on narrative documentary podcasts, including NARAL's The Lie that Binds. I've also co-hosted several small-audience comedy podcasts, and guested on several more prominent talk-comedy podcasts in the past year. My most recent production work was with Rebellion PAC producing political ads for the 2020 presidential and senate elections.

I also host a monthly stand-up show at Club Cumming called Snowflake Mic that features the best and brightest of NYC's up-and-coming queer comedians. The show strives to create a safe space for BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and femme/female-identifying comedians.

As a performer, I can be seen all over New York's comedy scene, which has recently included Caroline's, Stand Up NY, Broadway Comedy Club, Green Room 42 and pretty much every Brooklyn gay bar with a stage and a microphone.
