Ralph Harris
2016 CEA Master of Ceremonies
Ralph Harris made his feature film debut in “Dreamgirls,” which struck gold — of the Golden Globe variety! Ralph’s jump to the big screen came after years of success in television, including appearances on “Seinfeld,” “Parenthood,” and “In Living Color.” Ralph has been featured on “The Tonight Show Starring Jay Leno” and “Late Night with Conan O’Brien.” However, Ralph is best known for his starring role in the ABC-TV sitcom “On Our Own,” which still airs in syndication.
You can also catch Ralph on two cable television specials – “Comedy Central Presents” and the “HBO Half-Hour Comedy Special.” When he’s not filming, Ralph tours the country and perform to sold-out audiences as a stand-up comedian, his first career and love.
