}}Daniel "Dan" Gurewitch ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|g|ɜr|w|ɪ|tʃ}}; born May 20, 1984) is an American comedian, writer, and actor. He has worked as a senior writer for American comedy website CollegeHumor, and as a writer for the late-night talk and news satire show Last Week Tonight with John Oliver.[1]

A former pupil of Suffern High School, Gurewitch graduated from Newhouse, Syracuse University with a degree in television, radio, and film.[1]

From 2006 to 2013, Gurewitch worked as a senior writer for the comedy website CollegeHumor. His work there included Hardly Working and CollegeHumor Originals, in both of which he was a principal cast member. He is notable for a recurring sketch revolving around an alleged family recipe, "Beef Gurewitch", which is absurdly repulsive and features ludicrous backstories.

He studied improvisation at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre under Anthony King, Chris Gethard, Jason Mantzoukas, and Jackie Clarke, among others.[2]

As part of the writing staff for HBO's Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, he won a Writers Guild of America Award in 2015.[3]
