Rob Bartlett
Comedian
Rob Bartlett started performing stand-up comedy in 1978 hoping it would lead to a career in acting. Over 30 years later, Rob has become one of the most versatile performers around. He is a successful actor, standup comedian, radio personality and writer. Rob started in stand-up comedy at Richard M. Dixon’s White House Inn, a talent showcase club on New York’s Long Island run by the presidential look-alike. In the early years, Rob supported himself by day as an elevator operator and telephone salesman for radio advertising. It was at Dixon’s club where Rob met a 17-year-old Eddie Murphy, and the two became fast friends and formed two-thirds of the improvisational trio The Identical Triplets.
