"If I don’t know it, nobody does!" says HARRY FREEDMAN. Is he serious? Of
course not. Yet from comedy clubs to corporate events to television shows,
audiences take Harry Freedman very seriously--right up until the moment they
realize they have been had!
As "the nation’s leading expert," comedian Harry Freedman convinces
audiences he is a doctor, bureaucrat, presidential adviser, or a
psychologist--and the list goes on. But who is he? Harry Freedman is really
the king of comedy put-ons.
It’s hard to imagine how audiences are hoodwinked by a comedian whose TV
credits include "America’s Funniest People," "Comedy On The Road," "Stand-Up
Spotlight" with Rosie O’Donnel, and who has written for the highly acclaimed
sitcom "Everybody Loves Raymond," "Caroline’s Comedy Hour," and Showtime
Specials. Harry has also been profiled in The New York Times, The
International Herald Tribune, The Miami Herald, and Convention South.
But thanks to his ability to never crack a smile and what’s been described
as his "generic executive look," Harry Freedman fools audiences time and time
again. On the club and concert circuit, Harry Freedman has fun with audiences
by posing as a doctor who is moonlighting as a standup comic. On the corporate
lecture circuit, Harry is introduced as a newly hired executive, government
regulator, or outside consultant who starts off for real and uses custom
tailored material to fool the audience until they’re laughing so hard, they
eventually realize they’ve been had.
