Impressionist Rich Little

For those of us who lived through the ’70s and ’80s, the comedic impressionist Rich Little was everywhere on television. While he guest-starred in many classic TV shows, Little will always be remembered for his hilarious appearances on the Dean Martin Celebrity Roast TV series in the 1970s and early ’80s.

“I look back on those Dean Martin Roasts – and I did 24 (about half) of them – with much affection,” said Little from Las Vegas where he has been a long-time resident. “Aside from Ruth Buzzi, I’m the only regular from the show who is still alive. I’m blessed to still be working.”

Turning 85 later this year, Little has been delighting audiences with his visual and vocal celebrity impressions for the past seven years during his residency at the Laugh Factory comedy club on the third-floor showroom of the Las Vegas Tropicana hotel.
