Biography
Canadian-American impersonator comedian well known during the television variety-show heydays of the late '60s and '70s, doing famous satirizations of Richard Nixon, Clark Gable, John Wayne and a host of others. His voice and character impressions sharply satirized political, theatrical and current news figures, which sometimes annoyed - but always entertained - audiences.
Little started as a disk jockey, then became a radio talk-show host. He did improvisations at various events and quickly became one of the top nightclub performers in his native Canada. His TV appearances included his U.S. debut in 1964 on the "Judy Garland Show." A "Rich Little Special" on 9/03/1975 led to "The Rich Little Show," 1975-1976. Credits also include "A Christmas Carol," 1979, and "You Asked For It," 1981-1983.
He was married to the former Jeanne Worden from 1971-1989, and they had one daughter, Bria. He married his stage partner Jeannette Markey 10/29/1994 and that marriage lasted two years, ending in a bitter divorce.
Little lives in Las Vegas, and gives hundreds of performances in clubs and concert dates throughout the year.
