Tom Dreesen is an everyman in the best sense of the phrase. He has that singularly midwestern talent of touching a comedic nerve lightly, in a nostalgic way that cuts straight down the middle of the human experience into the realm of the gloriously mundane. It's that quality that has made Dreesen one of the most respected family comedians of our time.
Tom has made over 500 appearances on TV as a stand-up comedian, including over 60 appearances on the Tonight Show. He's a frequent and favorite guest of David Letterman and has hosted the show in David's absence.
