JACKSONVILLE, FL -- Does the name Antoine Merriweather ring a bell? How about his famous "2 snaps up in a circle" for a film he gave rave reviews?
The character behind that character is none other than comedian, actor and now author David Alan Grier.
This weekend, Grier is bringing that quick wit of his (which made him famous) to the First Coast.
But before he was to perform at The Comedy Zone in Mandarin, tonight and tomorrow night (September 18th and 19th), he stopped by the First Coast News studios for a live interview with Noon news anchor Joy Purdy.
Check out the video clip of that interview on this web page.
Did you know Grier went to drama school at Yale? Did you know he is one of the voices for those cool Nike sports commercials featuring puppets resembling NBA basketball stars Kobe Bryant and Lebron James?
Hear what Grier has to say about those feathers in his acting cap and more in the video clip!
