To begin with, Amir Blumenfeld’s family moved to the USA when he was just two, settling in California, and so he speaks both Hebrew and English fluently. He graduated from the University of California at Berkeley with a BSc degree.
Concerning his professional career, Amir rose to fame participating in the national IM Live contested organised by Yahoo, and managed to get to the semi-finals before losing. However, he is best known for starring in the web series “Jake and Amir” (2007 – present), shown on Collegehumor website as well as on Youtube and Vimeo. They are mostly shot in the main office of InterActiveCorp in New York City. Now, “Jake and Amir” has over 600 episodes with a running time from one to five minutes. Since the beginning of 2014, the episodes are partly synchronized in Spanish. Although the individual acts as well as the places of action in the episodes vary widely, there remains a consistent figure concept of the two performers, according to which Jake Hurwitz is shown as normal, productive; his colleague Amir embodies the annoying, unproductive character. The main stars of the series are Jake Hurwitz and Amir Blumenfeld. Frequent appearances are made by collaborators Patrick Cassels, Sarah Schneider, Jeff Rubin, Dan Gurewitch, Jeff Rosenburg and Ricky Van Veen. They also play in other series and videos of the website Collegehumor. In 2010, the series won Webby Award, and at the end of 2013 it was announced that television series is going to be created from the web show, which will be produced by Jake Hurwitz, Amir Blumenfeld and Ed Helms. The series is broadcast by the American television station TBS.
In addition to this, Amir Blumenfeld is also known for hosting the MTV series “Pranked” from 2009 to 2012, a half-hour comedy series that provided pictures and commentary on the jokes that have been filmed and set on the Internet. He co-hosted the show with Streeter Seidell who is the executive editor of Collegehumor and of the “Streeter Theeter” series. Moreover, Amir has appeared in other television series, including “Big Morning Buzz Live” (2011), “I Just Want My Pants Back” (2012) and “Animals” (2016) among many other shows.
To summarise, all the aforementioned engagements have increased the total size of Amir Blumenfeld net worth. Finally, in the personal life of Amir, he is apparently still single.
