Following his schooling Hammond relocated to New York to appear in off-Broadway plays, though he would soon return to Florida to sharpen his comedy skills in radio. After joining the SNL cast in September of 1995, Hammond also turned up on television in 3rd Rock From the Sun and performed stand-up for Comedy Central's Premium Blend. The versatile comic also followed the lead of numerous SNL cast members before him in shooting for the big screen in such efforts as Blues Brothers 2000 (1998) and with voice work in The King and I (1999). In 2006 he played a small supporting role in Ira & Abby, an offbeat romantic comedy following a neurotic thirtysomething who decides to make some major changes to his life after being dumped by both his girlfriend and his therapist. The following year he appeared in Epic Movie, and starred as a serial murderer known as the Kareoke Killer in the 2010 black comedy Buzzkill. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
