TOM DRAKE

Tom Drake was born and raised in New Jersey and is the product of thirteen years of Catholic education. One reviewer called Tom's act "An Attitude with a Tie"

A consummate storyteller, Tom has enjoyed a successful career making people laugh all over the world. His high-energy, laugh-packed show is fueled by a lifetime of adventures, including sailing through a hurricane, having his appendix removed in Greece, and even being shot at by pirates in the Gulf of Aden.

Tom’s combination of sharp observations, quick wit, and natural charm has made him a favorite with audiences in Atlantic City, Las Vegas, major concert venues, and aboard ships around the world.

Throughout his career, Tom has shared the stage with some of comedy’s biggest names, including Tim Allen, Rita Rudner, Elayne Boosler, Carrot Top, Jon Stewart, Alan King, Henny Youngman, and many others.

Tom has also found a new audience in the world of podcasting. His popular daily show, Tom Drake’s Daily Cruise & Travel News, is listened to by thousands and recently celebrated its 1,000th episode, proving that after all these years, Tom still has plenty to say and plenty of people willing to listen.

Looking back, Tom says the only thing he might have done differently was pursue more television appearances, mainly so his parents could have seen him perform more often.

Instead, his career has taken him around the world, doing what he loves while getting paid.

Kind of like the Army… but without the M-16s or the push-ups.
