In 2003, Martin appeared on Comedy Central's standup comedy special Premium Blend, and went on to write for Late Night With Conan O'Brien in the show's Emmy-winning 2003-2004 season. In a somewhat ironic career move, Martin signed a deal with Microsoft to write ads for Windows Vista (fellow Daily Show contributor John Hodgman appears regularly in Apple commercials). In 2007, Martin starred in Demetri Martin. Person., another Comedy Central showcase. The comedian also stars in the television series Important Things With Demetri Martin, put out by none other than Jon Stewart's Busboy Productions. ~ Tracie Cooper, Rovi
