Life and career

Born in Winnipeg, Cohen started transitioning from female to male in his 20s, making the information publicly known only in 2019.
Cohen began his career when he appeared in Moville Mysteries, shortly after which he appeared in Queer as Folk, Doc, RoboRoach, and Henry's World, as well as many commercials. In 2005, he won the national Moc Docs award for Best Mockumentary for his short film Jew Jube Lives—a rap parody based on the question, "If Eminem were Jewish and grew up in Thornhill, what would he be like?" He was the voice of Ty Archer in the animated TV series Grossology for which he and the ensemble received a Gemini Award nomination, the Canadian equivalent of an Emmy.
Since 2014, Cohen has played Schwoz Schwartz, a tech genius on the sitcom Henry Danger, a role he continues in the Henry Danger spinoff series Danger Force. He has appeared on shows such as Modern Family, The Real O'Neals, 2 Broke Girls, The Mindy Project, Backstrom, Eagleheart and Austin & Ally. His recent film credits include the comedy Suburbicon, directed by George Clooney and written by the Coen brothers; the Oscar-nominated film Whiplash; and the Canadian Screen Award-nominated film It Was You Charlie, for which he was nominated for an ACTRA Award for Outstanding Lead Performance.
Cohen has dozens of commercial credits including Mini Starburst, FedEx, Capital One, Boston Market, Honda, and the Super Bowl Hulu Plus campaign with Will Arnett. Cohen was co-chair of the SAG-AFTRA Hollywood Conservatory at the American Film Institute, and is a member of the National SAG-AFTRA Conservatory Committee. He has a master's degree in adult education focusing on transformative education for performers.
