Do you need a Comedian, Impersonator, or Singing Impressionist in the true style of a  Las Vegas Entertainer for your Corporate Entertainment?

It was not surprising that Tom would be entertaining for the top corporations of the world. It all began in his New York home, where Tom grew up. He entertained friends and family with his impersonations of Ed Sullivan, the Beatles, or the popular political figure of the day.. By age 9 he had taken his own ventriloquist act to various elementary schools . In high school, his impersonations of the teachers made him popular with his fellow classmates. His talent caught the eye of the school's Drama coach, who encouraged Tom to study acting and musical theatre.

His first major role came at Fordham University, where he played the lead role in Woody Allen's "Play it Again, Sam". After several off Broadway shows, Tom turned to stand-up comedy. After appearing at local New York clubs, and  winning  the Best new comedian at a popular club, Tom performed one night at the Comedy Store West in Los Angeles. He was invited to come back the  following  week.

He appeared in feature films, but live entertainment was where his heart remained. So Tom wrote and produced his "First Impressions" show which he tours with throughout the United States.

Tom also appears as a solo celebrity impersonator- either Tom Jones, Elvis or Sinatra in Musical Tributes to these marvelous performers. His Comedy Roasts, which he writes and performs as Jay Leno or others have also been a delight to audiences everywhere! His Phony  Motivational Speaker sessions are always a hit with the  corporate audience. He is available for the above shows ,  as well as Individual Characters for meet and greets, Corporate banquets, seminars, award ceremonies, events, trade shows, and promotions. Any way you hire him, you will find Tom personable, funny, and quite an entertainer!
