Mike E. Winfield

Don’t assume Mike E. Winfield is always happy just because he always seems to be smiling. “I just have big-ass teeth,” he explains in his act. “People always say, ‘Mike, you’re so positive about life.’ … It’s just that when I close my mouth, it’s uncomfortable.”

Winfield might have hit the career jackpot so many comedians are looking for when he landed a recurring role as a Dunder-Mifflin warehouse worker on The Office, but that doesn’t mean he’s still not keen on refining his onstage chops. The Sacramento, Calif.-based comedian’s material swings from the self-deprecating barbs noted above to humor about his own marriage to observations about seeing a man stealing a pregnancy test: “I don’t know this potential mother, but I know she’s not getting child support. … He wouldn’t even be in this situation if he’d stolen some condoms. He’s not a robber; he’s a procrastinator.” (Scott Renshaw)
