Dennis Blair is one of the most talented and versatile comedians in show business. His
act combines music, standup and topical observation, and can be tailored to the tastes
of any audience he works with. As a result, he is equally at home in comedy clubs,
corporate venues, cruise ships and concert halls. He has performed on The Tonight
Show and HBO, has co-hosted the Stephanie Miller Radio Show with Elayne Boosler,
and has entertained everywhere from Carnegie Hall in New York to the Universal
Amphitheater in Los Angeles to the Kennedy Center in Washington DC. He has
appeared regularly in Las Vegas, Atlantic City, Lake Tahoe, Reno and Laughlin with
such major celebrities as Rodney Dangerfield, Joan Rivers, Jackie Mason, the Beach
Boys, Gloria Estefan, Tom Jones and George Carlin (with whom he toured for over
eighteen years in the U.S. and Canada).

| “The funniest man in the world” - Elayne Boosler |
“It wouldn’t be fair to call him an impressionist,
because he’s more than that. He’s a parodist and
a satirist and a singer…well, there’s no word to
describe him.” - Randolph Hogan, NY Times

A FEW WORDS ABOUT GEORGE
CARLIN
I worked with George for about
twenty years. I know his health had
deteriorated recently, because I
saw the change from the George of
several years ago...Happy, upbeat,
constantly funny, a great guy to
hang around with...to the more
recent guy who was apparently
suffering. Through all the obvious
physical pain, the onstage mind
and the offstage writing skills were
as sharp as ever. I constantly
strived, and will continue to strive,
to be one billionth as good as he
was. Truly one of the best
comedians to have walked this
strange planet. Wish the final
years had been easier for him. I'm
sad he's gone.

CORPORATE REVIEWS
“In my line of work, 3 successes in 10 attempts at bat make you a star. If you’re 10
for 10, that’s 1,000 batting average. A 1,000 batting average elevates you to that
category of stardom few people can reach. Whether it’s performing at ARF or other
shows I’ve attended, you have always been a 1,000 performer!”
- Tony LaRussa, manager of the St. Louis Cardinals and founder of ARF (Animal
Rescue Foundation)
“Not only was your act clean, but you were funny, refreshing and your blend of music
and comedy was priceless.” - Patricia Schaefer, VP Business Support
Services, Blue Cross of California
“Dennis Blair is one of the funniest stand-up comedians and musical
impressionists in the business, and his performances have always been a
resounding success.” - Isaac Blech, Sterling-Blech Biotechnology Inc.

I have received more compliments on this party than any other party I’ve ever
planned! They loved you. Had comments like, Funniest man I’ve ever seen. My sides

we really appreciate the clean, funny entertainment that you provided to an extremely
tired, overworked team! We will definitely keep you in mind for next year if it can
