Tom Dreesen

Tom is a legendary figure in the world of stand up comedy and
entertainment: He was one of the first class members at The
Comedy Store in LA (featured in the recent Showtime documentary,
along with pals Robin Williams, David Letterman, Jay Leno,
Michael Keaton) and got his big break when he became a favorite
of Johnny Carson's Tonight Show.


Tom toured with Sammy Davis, Jr., Natalie Cole, Smokey Robinson
and others…before becoming Frank Sinatra's
opening act for the last 14 years of Frank's career. If you saw
Sinatra in concert in the 1980s or 90s, more than likely Tom
opened for him. As a result, Tom and Sinatra established a
personal friendship unlike any other, which we capture in the
book.
