About Mark Russell
Whenever Mark Russell is down in the dumps, he opens the newspaper and immediately cheers up. Practically everything he sees strikes him funny. "Some days," he says, 'the jokes jump off the pages and write themselves."
Mark Russell has spent most of the past 30 years on Public Television. The Mark Russell Comedy Specials consistently were among the top-rated shows on that network. He performs stand-up comedy while accompanying himself on the piano.
Mark is a native of Buffalo, NY. He is particularly well-known in Washington, DC, where he performed weekly for twenty years. Politicians would come to hear Mark's jokes about the things they had done that day. Today, he continues to perform and his syndicated column is enjoyed all over America.
