Josh Perilo is a Writer and Creative Director based in Brooklyn, New York.

Josh came up through the New York Upright Citizen's Brigade in its very early days. After performing a year-long sold out run of his sketch show Mr. A$$ at the UCB (which also starred Brett Gelman and Jon Daly), Josh branched out and began writing for TV, including MTV, FX, and The Fine Living Network. He wrote all ten episodes of the Mark Duplass produced web series Wedlock, which had the distinction of being the first pay-for-play content on Vimeo. After that, he sold his live-action scripted comedy The Hindenburg Explodes, which he Executive Produced alongside Rob Corddry, to Adult Swim. The pilot was aired as a holiday special. In 2020, Josh sold his script Paradise Acres to Sanford Panitch at Columbia Pictures. His writing has also been featured in McSweeney's and The American Bystander.

As a Creative Director, Josh has been lead creative on campaigns, social strategies, and promotions for Barnes & Noble, Autism Speaks, Reese’s, Kit Kat, Mounds, barkTHINS, and many others.
