Rich Walker
is a 17-year veteran of quality stand-up
comedy and one of the most versatile performers we have today. Voted "1st
Place WINNER" of the BEST OF L.I. 2011 by the Long Island Press !!
Rich has been seen performing at some of the country's top comedy clubs,
colleges, venues & benefit events. Rich has been delighted & honored to
share the stage with some of show business's biggest names such as Ray
Romano, Kevin James, Jimmy JJ Walker & Johnny Maestro the Brooklyn Bridge.
Rich might be a familiar face, as he has written and starred in several
television commercials. He has appeared on Cablevision's News12 and
the
New York Times
has
enlightened us with his story.
He is also a proud co-founder and current
professor of Stand-Up University, a school designed for the teaching of
fine Stand-Up Comedy on Long Island.
A true blue modern day Entertainer! Rich makes fun of the
everyday predicaments we all get ourselves into, from odd shopping
situations to marriage & kids. In Rich Walker you'll see a little Lou
Costello with a twist of Buddy Hackett. He's a throw-back to when showbiz
performers were "fun loving" entertainers. Delighting audiences with
great likability, he's the perfect entertainer for all ages.
