Robin Williams should be included, Duff.

Hi, GSFmapleleafforever.  You'll find Johnny Carson, Steve Allen, and Jack Paar in this site's "Actors and Entertainers" gallery.  Sometimes it's hard to decide which gallery to put folks like these in, but since they hosted talk/variety shows, I chose to call them entertainers rather than just humorists.

David Letterman has been a mainstay of Boomers too.
SNL!

Okay, I've added L&H.  I'll work on the Bowery Boys next.

Hi, Kids TV Kid.  It's just little ol' me here at the BBeM.  Laurel & Hardy and the Bowery Boys would indeed make fine additions to the Humor gallery, as would hundreds of other performers.  I need your help here, and that of the other members.  You can use the "Submit an item" button to create new gallery entries, complete with photos.

Why isn't Laurel & Hardy and"The Bowery Boys"listed in this section of"The Baby Boomer e Museum"? I hope that the owners and supervisors of this site will add Stan and Ollie and"The Bowery Boys"to The "Humor"section in the near future?SurprisedWink

How about David Steinberg.  Extremely funny man - on Tonight Show over 100 times - Johnny loved him.
Posted by Duff at 12:00 pm (PST) on Sun February 10, 2013   
Riiiight! Wink  I've added his debut album.  Feel free to post your memories of that and his others.

What about Bill Cosby?   He had many funny albums I loved listening to when I was a kid.
