Louie Anderson

Actor, comedian, Family Feud host and Emmy winner Louie Anderson died after a battle with cancer. He was 68.

The lineup of the ”Feeding American Comedy Festival” also includes Billy Crystal, Tiffany Hadish, Kevin Hart, Marlon Wayans, Howie Mandel, Brad Garrett, Taraji P. Henson, Louie Anderson, Margaret Cho, Kenan Thompson, Marc Maron, and more.

Maybe it's because we're both originally from Massachusetts and share a lot of the same comedic and cultural sensibilities, but comedian Greg Johnson is, hands down, one of my all-time favorite comedians. Although I can't remember the exact showcase or even the exact year, Greg for sure first came to my attention at a comedy showcase at Rififi (probably Invite Them Up)...
