About Zane Lamprey
Zane Lamprey (born April 2, 1972 in Syracuse, New York, United States) is a comedian, actor, and author. After two decades pursuing a career in entertainment in Los Angeles, Lamprey landed his breakout role hosting the cult sensation Three Sheets for the now defunct MOJO HD channel. Shortly after arriving in Los Angeles, Lamprey began creating hidden-camera shows with friends. Over time, as many of his collaborators left the city or moved on from entertainment, he continued pursuing creative work independently. Drawing on the skills he developed producing his own projects, Lamprey secured a series of editing and producing positions within the television industry. He went on to develop and sell multiple television concepts, including hidden-camera formats, and appeared in several pilots and series. Early in his career, he hosted television pilots for networks including VH1, was a cast member on the short-lived MTV series Damage Control, and sold projects to Comedy Central, Warner Bros. Animation, and Merv Griffin Entertainment. Lamprey's career took off when he began hosting Three Sheets, which had him traveling around the world to learn about cultures by drinking with the locals. While still shooting Three Sheets, he was also signed on for his own Food Network show called Have Fork, Will Travel, where he proved that the magic of his hosting was not just inside the bottle. When MOJO HD went off the air, Lamprey hosted a second travel-drinking show in 2010, Drinking Made Easy, for Mark Cuban's HDNet. He has also hosted travel-drinking shows for National Geographic Channel (Chug), and Amazon Prime (Four Sheets). After Three Sheets, Zane Lamprey created Drinking Made Easy, a similar drinking and traveling show focused on American bars and drinks. After raising $591,804, six hour-long episodes were created and was expected to be released in 2014.
