Adam Long began his working life as an accountant for an anti-nuclear political action committee by day and bassist in an acoustic punk band by night. Then he donned a skirt and wig and became a founding member of the Reduced Shakespeare Company.

Adam toured with RSC, spent five years following The Grateful Dead, did comedy in Canada, became a Buddhist and finally settled in England, where he makes cartoon noises and lives in London with his wife Alex, son Joe, daughter Tilly, friend John, four guinea pigs, a fish, two turtles, a cat and a little gray rabbit named Willard.
