Lance Barber was born in Battle Creek, Michigan. His father, an Army military police officer, was killed in line of duty when Barber was one year old. His mother raised him by herself in Battle Creek. When Lance was seven years old, he saw a production of Grease, fell in love of acting, and decided that's what he wanted to do for the rest of his life.

He graduated from Pennfield High School in 1991, then attended Kellogg Community College, where he performed in school productions while earning his associate's degree. After a year at the Barn Theatre, where he worked with Jennifer Garner, he moved to Chicago and tried his luck at the famed Second City under Del Close. Barber spent five years at Second City, where he performed alongside Jack McBrayer.

Moving to Los Angeles to try it out, Barber made his first TV appearance on Gilmore Girls. His breakout role came in 2005, when he played Paulie G. in HBO's The Comeback with co-star Lisa Kudrow.

As of 2017, Barber plays George Cooper, Sr. on the TV show Young Sheldon, a spin-off of The Big Bang Theory. He resides in Los Angeles with his wife Aliza, a chef. He is the father of two children, a son and daughter. When he is not working, he is looking after his kids.
