Career

Crane started in show business working local comedy clubs in the New Orleans area, and then earned a spot as a cast member of Cheap Theatrix, a New Orleans sketch comedy group written and produced by Buddy Sheffield (The Dolly Show, In Living Color, Roundhouse). Crane moved to Los Angeles, California, in the mid-1980s and worked briefly as the director of Universal Studios' "Star Trek Adventure". He was later admitted to the Groundlings comedy school where he wrote and performed with Will Ferrell, Cheri Oteri, Kathy Griffin, Michael McDonald and Chris Kattan, among others. Between stints with The Groundlings in the early 1990s, Crane co-wrote and starred in Nickelodeon's Saturday night ensemble variety series, "Roundhouse", produced by Sheffield and his former spouse, Rita Hester. His most notable recurring role on "Roundhouse" was as the children's father, who rode around the set in a motorized recliner. "Roundhouse" was canceled after four seasons.

In the mid 1990s, Crane was a cast member on the syndicated children's TV show "AJ's Time Travelers" (The Fly) and earned a number of small on-screen TV roles, including spots on Baywatch (Roger the hypnotist), The Love Boat-The Next Wave, Murder Live!, Night Stand (Hank) and Alien Avengers. He had several supporting roles in movies such as "Body Waves" (Joe), "Blood Fist IV", "Richie Rich Christmas Wish" (Slim) and "The Hole" (Louie) and wrote a number of episodes for the popular cartoon, Johnny Bravo. Crane was later hired to write and produce Nickelodeon's hit series, Rocket Power, and wrote a number of episodes of Nickelodeon's CatDog and at least one episode of Jimmy Neutron.

Crane joined the writing staff at MADtv in 2000 and was promoted to head writer in 2006. He was promoted to Executive Producer/Show Runner in 2007. In addition to a few minor roles, Crane has appeared on MADtv as Choppy, a semi-recurring character who annoys others with his grating voice, loud boom box, strange dance moves and oversized Big Gulp soda. Crane also recently consulted on the Victoria Beckham reality TV show, "Coming to America".
