After graduating from college, Strassner moved to Los Angeles to pursue a comedy career. While performing with
the Groundlings improvisational group, he was close getting to a job on
Saturday Night Live, auditioning in person in New York, but was ultimately passed over for his friend
Heidi Gardner. His later television credits included small roles on
Young Rock (as
Jerry Lawler) and
English Teacher. Reviews were positive and included praise for the chemistry between Strassner and his co-star
Liz Larsen. ==References==
