TREVOR MOORE, the U.S. comedian, actor and producer who co-founded sketch comedy group The Whitest Kids U Know, died Friday in an accident. He was 41.

Moore’s manager confirmed the news to Variety and provided a statement on behalf of Moore’s wife, Aimee Carlson, and family.

“We are devastated by the loss of my husband, best friend and the father of our son. He was known as a writer and comedian to millions, and yet to us he was simply the center of our whole world,” Carlson wrote.

Moore was born in Montclair, New Jersey and grew up in Charlottesville, Virginia. He developed an interest in writing from a young age, creating and publishing cartoons in his teens. At 19, he wrote and produced a sketch comedy show for a local TV station.

After moving to New York in 1999, he interned with Lorne Michaels at “Saturday Night Live” and co-founded The Whitest Kids U Know with Zach Cregger, Sam Brown, Timmy Williams and Darren Trumeter. The group produced a self-titled sketch series for IFC that ran for five seasons. They also made two films together, “Miss March” and “The Civil War on Drugs,” with an animated feature titled “Mars” due to premiere in 2022.

Aside from The Whitest Kids U Know, Moore began hosting “The Trevor Moore Show” on Comedy Central in 2019. He also co-created and executive produced the interactive Disney Channel comedy “Just Roll With It” and wrote and directed Disney XD series “Walk the Prank.”
