About Mark Russell
Long
before Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, there was Mark Russell, daring to joke
and sing of the often absurd political process. He started in a little piano
bar on Capitol Hill – right across from the lawmakers themselves. As he puts
it, "I started at the bottom and managed to work my way down." He
began knowing little about politics, but was an immediate hit because he could
find humor in anything.
Mark
Russell spent 30 years on public television as host of the "Mark Russell
Comedy Specials," where it was consistently among the top-rated shows on
that network. Recently, a retrospective of his work (Mark Russell’s America)
was broadcast across the PBS network. During those same years he wrote a
syndicated column, and recorded CDs, tapes and videos. The rest of the time
Mark Russell was on the road performing at colleges, conventions and in
theaters.
And his answer to
the frequently asked question, "Did you have any writers?" is
"Oh, yes...I have 535 writers. One hundred in the Senate and 435 in the
House.
