Internet Detective Squad, Assemble! (Golden Globes edition)
January 12, 2015 2:49 AM   Subscribe

Research / Detective geniuses of MeFi, hear my call. Please can you help me identify the man standing directly to Jeffrey Tambor's left in the image at the top of this page from the Golden Globes? I assure you this is for important, serious purposes...

And not because a friend thinks he's hot. Thanks in advance!

I believe that's mumblecore veteran and cast member of 'Transparent' Jay Duplass.

Response by poster: Is Jay Duplass not to the guy to his right, though? (as in the one on the end?)

Just to clarify, do you mean the second person from the left in this image (the only one with a visible bow tie)?

The video on this page might list those who go on stage to collect the award (I'm deaf, there are no captions).

Response by poster: Yes Humph, that's the one.

Have you tried cropping humph's image (clearer shot) and running it through Google Images?

In case it's a helpful data point, in the Getty Images photos of the winners, he is only identified as "guest."

ik ben afgesneden, tried that, rubbish results!

The photographer in bcwinters' link is on Twitter (Steve Granitz), might be worth asking him there? He might retweet and I'm assuming he has a following that actually have television sets and have seen the show. Ahem.

Because of the way the mystery man seemed to shepherd some of the cast members on to the stage, I've tried googling on the production side (directors, producers, writers) but not had much luck either (partly because many don't have their images in public).

That's Joe Lewis, Amazon Studio's head of comedy.

Short Attention Sp is right, and here's a photo identifying him in the group.

Response by poster: Holy hell. Good work everyone and thanks! I'm just now off to steam in resentment over how Amazon's head of comedy could be so young / attractive...
