Timeline
Harris Lee Wittels (April 20, 1984 – February 19, 2015) was an American comedian.
He was a writer for The Sarah Silverman Program, a writer and executive producer for Parks and Recreation, and a recurring guest on Comedy Bang! Bang!
According to the first episode of Analyze Phish, Wittels became a fan of Phish while he was in high school, after he and his friends spontaneously decided to see the band's concert on September 25, 1999, at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in The Woodlands, Texas.
Wittels described the show's impact on him in an interview with Relix, recalling "I was literally a fan since that night. It was the most amazing concert experience of my life. It wasn't even that great of a show, but even a regular Phish show, especially pre-hiatus, is gonna be better than anything else you see."
Wittels often appeared on Parks and Recreation as the character Harris, who habitually wore Phish t-shirts.
In 2006, he graduated from Emerson College, where he was a member of Sigma Alpha Epsilon, with a degree in television and video production.
He also wrote for the 2007 and 2008 MTV Movie Awards.
He coined the word in 2010.
Wittels was born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, US, the son of Ellison Wittels and Maureen (née Davidson) Wittels.
He was raised in Houston, Texas, in the Jewish faith.
He celebrated his bar mitzvah at Temple Emanu-El, across the street from Rice University.
He described his father as "the funniest dude alive".
Wittels attended the High School for the Performing and Visual Arts in Houston.
When The Sarah Silverman Program ended in 2010, Wittels became a staff writer and executive story editor for Parks and Recreation during the show's second season, then later co-producer during the third season and executive producer during the fourth.
His writing credits included the episodes "Media Blitz", "94 Meetings" and "Dave Returns".
He also appeared on the show as Harris, a dim-witted animal control employee.
He wrote for Secret Girlfriend and Eastbound and Down.
In 2010, Wittels coined the phrase "humblebrag" on Twitter.
He wrote for Grantland on the subject of notable "humblebrags", the act of boasting about one's life and then downplaying it.
Humblebrag was designated the "most useful" word of 2011 by the American Dialect Society.
In 2012, Wittels was hired as a consulting producer for the TV series Eastbound & Down during its third season.
He consulted throughout the season, as well as co-writing two episodes.
Wittels was a frequent guest on the Earwolf podcast Comedy Bang! Bang! and was known for the recurring segment "Harris' Foam Corner" (originally titled "Harris' Phone Corner", which debuted on Episode 31 of CBB), during which he read jokes and observations saved on his phone that were deemed to be not good enough for his act.
Also on the Earwolf network, Wittels hosted the Analyze Phish podcast, where he attempted to convince friends to enjoy the band Phish.
He was also part of the popular series of CBB episodes entitled "Farts and Procreation" along with fellow Parks and Recreation alumni Adam Scott and Chelsea Peretti.
The episodes would usually devolve into nonsensical improv sessions.
There were four "Farts and Pro" episodes, the final one being recorded very shortly before Harris' death and released days later, posthumously.
Wittels was a member of the band Don't Stop or We'll Die, along with comedians Paul Rust and Michael Cassady.
He was the band's drummer and provided backing vocals.
DSOWD performed a number of times on ''Comedy Bang!
Bang'' and played Los Angeles venues such as Largo and writer/director Rob Schrab's wedding.
Notable songs include "Lisa," "Once in Awhile," and "She Got Titties (In All The Right Places)".
The popularity of the feed led to a book, Humblebrag: The Art of False Modesty, published in 2012.
In August 2013, NBC picked up an untitled Wittels sitcom, about a slacker still living with his parents while dealing with his whiz kid younger brother, a multi-millionaire entrepreneur in high school.
Wittels was a dedicated fan of the band Phish.
His mother Maureen estimated that he saw the band in concert over 300 times in his lifetime, and his contract for The Sarah Silverman Program was reportedly written to include time off so he could follow the band on tour.
