Stephen Carlos Lemme (born November 13, 1968) is an American actor, writer, and producer, and one of the members of the Broken Lizard comedy group.
Early life
Lemme attended Dalton School, a high school in New York, but after one year transferred to Fountain Valley School of Colorado, graduating in 1987 (in 2017 he was inducted into the Fountain View School Arts Guild). He attended Colgate University and was a member of the Beta Theta Pi fraternity. Before leaving Colgate, he was part of Charred Goosebeak, a comedy troupe with the future members of Broken Lizard. His father is originally from Argentina. Through his mother's side, Lemme is of Puerto Rican and French descent. As a child, Lemme developed Polio as a result of a very rare side effect of a vaccination against the disease, which resulted in the decay of his right calf muscle.
