Everything about Toby Radloff totally explained
Toby Radloff (born
12 December,
1957) is a former file clerk (he's presently a courier) who has worked at the
Veterans Affairs Medical Center in
Cleveland, Ohio. He has become a minor celebrity owing to his appearances in Cleveland writer
Harvey Pekar’s autobiographical comic book
American Splendor. Radloff has a distinctive manner of speech and quirky mannerisms. He is a self-proclaimed “Genuine
Nerd”, and is proud of it.
The comic book appearances eventually led Toby to starring in a series of
MTV segments throughout the 1980s and acting in the low budget, cult horror films
Killer Nerd,
Bride of Killer Nerd, and
Townies. He also appeared on the cable access program
The Eddie Marshall Show. He became a local celebrity for his takes on nerd topics such as cheese, yo-yos, hamburgers, the internet, world politics and (of course) being a nerd.
In the
2003 film
American Splendor, the award-winning film adaptation of Pekar’s comic, Radloff is played by
Judah Friedlander, but also appears as himself in the documentary sections of the film.
On
August 3,
2006, Radloff tried out to be the next
"Wack Packer" on
The Howard Stern Show, but lost in the finals because Stern and crew felt that he was too famous.
Toby and "Townies" creator
Wayne Alan Harold are currently making short comedy videos for lurid.com and for Turner Broadcasting's SuperDeluxe.com. Radloff is also voicing "Ted" in THE TED ZONE animated series, also for Super Deluxe.
Toby currently lives in
Berea, Ohio.
