Meet Bashir Salahuddin: A Multifaceted Talent in Comedy Writing and Acting
Angeles Investors takes immense pride in featuring Bashir Salahuddin, an Emmy-nominated talent whose journey from the South Side of Chicago to Hollywood has left an indelible mark on both comedy writing and acting.
Raised in a family where hard work was a staple, Bashir’s initial academic pursuit led him to Harvard University. While he started on a pre-med path, his true passion for theater and writing soon took precedence, setting the stage for a multifaceted career.
Bashir’s professional journey began in earnest with writing roles for Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, where he honed his comedic writing skills and played a key role in the show’s success, culminating in him being chosen to write “slow jam the news” for president Obama . His ability to blend humor with insightful social commentary quickly became his hallmark. Collaborating with his writing partner Diallo Riddle, Bashir co-created the comedy shows “South Side” and “Sherman’s Showcase.” “South Side,” set in his hometown, humorously reflects the resilience of its residents, while “Sherman’s Showcase” offers a variety show filled with witty sketches and musical performances, echoing the style of 1970s television.
“Comedy can often be a reflection of reality,” Bashir notes. “It’s about presenting our truths in ways that resonate universally.” His approach has consistently emphasized humor that is not only accessible but also rich with social commentary.
