Biography

Robert Ben Garant, born on September 14, 1970, is a multifaceted American entertainment professional. He has made a name for himself as an actor, comedian, writer, director, and producer.

Garant is perhaps best known for his work on the hilarious Reno 911!, where he takes on the role of Deputy Travis Junior. Additionally, he was a cast member on the MTV sketch comedy series The State, showcasing his impressive comedic talents.

As a writer, Garant has collaborated with his long-time writing partner, actor Thomas Lennon, on several successful screenplays. Their notable works include the Night at the Museum films, which have garnered widespread acclaim.

Garant and Lennon also ventured into television, creating and starring in a 2010 sitcom pilot for NBC titled The Strip. Although it didn't get picked up as a series, the duo didn't let that setback deter them. Later in 2010, they developed a pilot for FX called USS Alabama, a sci-fi/comedy set a thousand years in the future, aboard a United Nations Peacekeeping spaceship.

Throughout his career, Garant has demonstrated his versatility and creativity, leaving a lasting impact on the entertainment industry.
