Biography

David Lawrence "Dave" McCary was born on July 2, 1985 in San Diego, California to Diane Lee McCary (née Phillips) & Gary Lee McCary. He works as a segment director for Saturday Night Live (1975). During college he formed a sketch comedy group, Good Neighbor. In 2007, McCary came together with Kyle Mooney, Beck Bennett, and Nick Rutherford to form the sketch comedy group, Good Neighbor. The group received personal acknowledgments from Steven Spielberg and comedian Louis C.K. Prior to landing on SNL, Good Neighbor had just finished filming a Comedy Central pilot, The Good Neighbor Show, that was produced by Will Ferrell and Adam McKay via their company Gary Sanchez. SNL reportedly had to work with Comedy Central to get them out of their contract so they could join the long-running sketch show. During this time, McCary directed the first two seasons of Epic Rap Battles of History. McCary joined Saturday Night Live for its thirty-ninth season as a segment director along with Good Neighbor co-founders, Kyle Mooney and Beck Bennett, who joined as featured players, and Nick Rutherford, who joined as a staff writer.
