Dominick Pupa is a NYC-based comic, host, writer and TV producer.
In comedy, Dominick has bribed and blown his way onto stages across the US and the UK for more than two decades. He cut his teeth as a go-to audience warmup comic on more than a dozen shows, including The View, Tyra Banks, Ricki Lake and Live w/Regis & Kelly. Dominick made his Carnegie Hall debut in 2013 as the host of the Lucie Awards, and has hosted events for organizations and charities nationwide, including the American Cancer Society, LGBT network Dot429, LA-based children’s charity 826la and MSquared: Musicians Against Multiple Sclerosis.
In television, Dominick was Emmy-nominated for his decade-long stint producing daytime talk shows, and then served as a producer or Executive Producer on some of the biggest hits of the reality age, including Bravo’s Real Housewives of Atlanta, Blood Sweat & Heels, Real Housewives of New York, and Don’t Be Tardy for the Wedding, ABC’s The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, and Wife Swap, Logo’s The A-List: New York, and Style Network’s Married Away and Whose Wedding Is It Anyway. He is currently the VP of a NY-based production company, and serves as the EP of TLC’s Long Island Medium.
While gaining moderate recognition for his performance and television work over the years, Dominick found unexpected viral fame for a poem he wrote after the Orlando tragedy, “Don’t Tell Gay People How To Mourn.” The poem has been shared hundreds of thousands of times and has been seen by an estimated 2.5 million people after being published by Buzzfeed and BET.com and generously retweeted by Kathy Griffin and Bianca Del Rio.
Dominick lives in Manhattan with his husband and their bulldog, Gravy. Gravy was named that so Dominick would remember to feed him.
