Paul John Barbieri (21 November 1958 – 11 April 2019), known professionally as Ian Cognito, was an English stand-up comedian.[1][2] He won the Time Out Award for Stand-up Comedy in 1999.
Cognito had an aggressive stage persona and a reputation as Britain’s "most banned" comic.[3] Nevertheless, he was widely rated as a masterful performer with an innate grasp of stagecraft, inviting comparisons to iconoclasts like Lenny Bruce, Bill Hicks, and Jerry Sadowitz.[4]
A posthumous film about his life won Best Feature Documentary at the LA Indies in 2021.[5]
