Stephen Carlos Lemme (born November 13, 1968)[1] is an American actor, writer, and producer, and one of the members of the Broken Lizard comedy group.

Early life

[edit]

Lemme attended Dalton School, a high school in New York,[2] but after one year transferred to Fountain Valley School of Colorado, graduating in 1987 (in 2017 he was inducted into the Fountain View School Arts Guild).[3] He attended Colgate University and was a member of the Beta Theta Pi fraternity. Before leaving Colgate, he was part of Charred Goosebeak, a comedy troupe with the future members of Broken Lizard. His father is originally from Argentina. Through his mother's side, Lemme is of Puerto Rican and French descent.[4] As a child, Lemme developed Polio as a result of a very rare side effect of a vaccination against the disease, which resulted in the decay of his right calf muscle.[5][6]
