Arthur Steven Lange Jr. (born October 11, 1967) is an American stand-up comedian, actor, radio personality, author, and podcaster best known for his tenures on the sketch comedy series Mad TV from 1995 to 1997 and as third mic on The Howard Stern Show from 2001 to 2009. Raised in New Jersey, Lange first worked as a longshoreman and taxi driver to help support his family, following the death of his quadriplegic father. He debuted as a stand-up comic in 1987 and took up the profession full-time five years later, developing his act in the New York City area.
In 1985, Lange gained admission to Seton Hall University in New Jersey using a connection his uncle had with an employee of the admissions department. In one early assignment, he received an A grade for a presentation he made, telling stories about his friends and family to the class. “It was the first time I got a bunch of laughs in front of a crowd of total strangers and it felt amazing to get that reaction from people.” After four weeks, Lange became bored “to death” and began to think of ways to quit. On October 18, in a sudden turn of events, his father fell off a ladder while installing an antenna and broke his back, becoming quadriplegic. Money soon became an issue in the family. Lange’s mother took up a secretarial job and Lange spent a short time installing antennas himself. Lange recalled the situation: “We took out a second mortgage. Medicaid paid for a nurse eight hours a day. When my mother got back from being a secretary all day, she had to take care of him. Every night, she set her alarm clock to turn him so he wouldn’t get bedsores.” In 1987, the family contacted celebrities asking them to donate items for auction. Howard Stern, the only one to respond, sent them an autographed jacket and said on the air, “Does this guy think that if he puts the jacket on he’s going to walk again?”, which Lange and his father found funny. Lange’s father died from complications of an infection in 1990, though he believes one of his father’s “crazy friends” may have helped him to commit suicide.
Her sibling Stacey has a career as a designer. He was with Dana Sironi from 2002 until 2006. His wife was Adrienne Ockrymiek. However, the fell out in 2014.
