Early life
[edit]Schulz was born William Dawes Schulz in Lake Forest, Illinois. He has two brothers, Alfred and Jonathan, and was raised Catholic.[2] He is a descendant of William Dawes, who rode with Paul Revere in the "Midnight Ride" during the American Revolution.[3] He attended high school in Illinois at Lake Forest Academy, and in 1998 received a BA in Print Journalism from Emerson College.[4]
Career
[edit]Red Eye
[edit]From its debut in 2007 until November 2013, Schulz was a regular panelist, writer, and producer on "Red Eye with Greg Gutfeld". Serving as host Greg Gutfeld's "repulsive sidekick" who was routinely the target of Gutfeld's running gags, Schulz often looked directly into the camera (even when he was not being talked to) with his signature "crazy-eyed look," along with frequently waving to the television viewing audience. Schulz provided the voice for an anthropomorphism of The New York Times newspaper, named "Pinch" (a reference to publisher Arthur Ochs Sulzberger Jr.).[citation needed]
Schulz's final appearance on Red Eye was on November 7, 2013, and his departure (for undisclosed reasons) was officially announced on November 22.[5]
Mornin'!!!
[edit]Schulz was the co-host of Mornin'!!! w/ Bill Schulz and Joanne Nosuchinsky, on the Compound Media entertainment network. He was laid off, along with the rest of their talent, in April 2024.
Other Ventures
[edit]Schulz works as a freelance writer. His articles have appeared in Maxim, The Daily Beast, and The New York Times.[6][7][8]
