Modi Rosenfeld, an Israeli-born comedian working out of America's comedy capital in New York City, has made a name for himself around the comedy circuit as an established headliner.
While Rosenfeld performs for all audiences living in the melting pot of the world, and touring across the country, he is widely popular in the Jewish community performing for both reform and orthodox audiences across the globe.
Ronsenfeld, both a comedian and actor, was born in Tel Aviv and moved to New York with his parents as a young child. He was a finalist on the fourth season of Last Comic Standing, and has made appearance in hit shows such as The Sopranos, CSI: NY, Madame Secretary and Deadbeat. He also performed for the late Israeli astronaut Ilan Ramon in Houston, Texas just before his fatal final mission aboard the Columbia Space Shuttle - a mission where Ramon and six other astronauts died upon the shuttle's re-entry to earth in 2003.
