Leno is widely known as “the hardest working man in show business,” having hosted the number one-rated “The Tonight Show with Leno” for two decades. He currently produces and hosts the “Leno’s Garage YouTube Channel.” During his time as host of “The Tonight Show,” Leno never lost a single ratings year after the first two years.

From 2021 to 2023, Leno hosted the comedy game show “You Bet Your Life” in first-run syndication. He co-hosted the show with his longtime “Tonight Show” bandleader, Kevin Eubanks, featuring strangers answering trivia questions to win money.
When not on television, Leno performs more than 100 stand-up shows annually across the country and internationally. He also participates in numerous charity and corporate events, provides voice-overs for animated series, writes children’s books and contributes a monthly column to various automotive magazines.

He has received many honors throughout his career, including Emmys, People’s Choice, and TV Guide awards.
Other accolades include a Harris Poll selection as most popular star on television, the Hasty Pudding Award at Harvard University, the Mark Twain Prize, the Patriot Award given by the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame.
