Born January 17, 1962 in Newmarket, Ontario, Carrey knew by age three that show business was in his blood. At age 15, Carrey took off for Toronto to perform at Yuk Yuks, the famous comedy club. Following the performance, Carrey's career took off and for the next few years he worked in comedy clubs all over Canada. In 1981, at age 19, he packed his belongings and moved to Los Angeles. Carrey immediately became a regular at Mitzi Shore's Comedy Store, attracting the attention of comedy legend Rodney Dangerfield. Dangerfield was so impressed with the young comic that they began touring together. It was then that things began to happen for Jim Carrey.

1982 proved to be a magical year for Carrey when MTM cast him as the star of their NBC series Duck Factory. Although the series only lasted 13 weeks, Carrey's work left a lasting impression in Hollywood. The next year he landed the lead role in the feature film Once Bitten, starring Lauren Hutton. He followed that film with roles in Francis Ford Coppola's Peggy Sue Got Married, and with Geena Davis in the comedy Earth Girls Are Easy. In 1988, Carrey made a brief, but memorable, appearance as Johnny Squares, the self-destructive rock star in the Clint Eastwood film The Dead Pool.

In 1990, Carrey joined the cast of Fox Television's ensemble comedy hit In Living Color. In November of the following year, his first Showtime Special, entitled Jim Carrey's Unnatural Act, premiered to rave reviews. He followed the special's success with a starring role as an alcoholic trying to cope with life in Fox's Emmy nominated movie of the week Doing Time on Maple Drive.

In 1994, after several successful seasons on In Living Color, Carrey once again branched out into feature films by accepting the lead role in the Warner Bros. comedy Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. Carrey's no holds barred portrayal of Ace Ventura made him an instant sensation and made the film a hit. Carrey followed that success in the summer of 1994 by starring in the title role of the action fantasy The Mask, based on the best selling Dark Horse comic book series of the same name. The Mask went on to gross in excess of $100 million domestically, winning spectacular reviews for Carrey. That same year he starred opposite Jeff Daniels in the Farrelly brothers' film Dumb and Dumber. Carrey starred as the Riddler/ Edward Nygma in the 1995 blockbuster sequel Batman Forever. The following year he went on to star in Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls, continuing the misadventures of the world's favorite pet detective, and then starred in Columbia Pictures' The Cable Guy. Universal Pictures' hit Liar, Liar opened to record-breaking numbers in 1997 earning over $100 million in ticket grosses. His triumphant triple play earned him the honor of NATO/ShoWest Comedy Star of the Year.
