Foster Brooks (1912-2001) was a radio and television broadcaster before
breaking into acting in the 1960s (he would make his national TV debut on The
Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson in 1962 after opening for Perry Como at
the new Las Vegas Hilton in Las Vegas). Known as "The Loveable Lush",
Brooks is best known for his frequent appearances on Dean Martin celebrity
roasts (despite being known for playing a drunk, Brooks became a national
spokesman for Mothers Against Drunk Driving - MADD - and did public service
announcements for the organization). Brooks was a regular on two TV
series, The Real Tom Kennedy Show (1970) and The New Bill Cosby
Show (1972-1973), he lent his voice to the animated TV series, Challenge
of the GoBots (1984), and he made numerous guest appearances on TV variety
shows and series, from Gunsmoke (1962) to Cosby (1996). His film
credits include Super Seal (1976), Cracking Up (1983),
Cannonball Run II and Oddballs (both 1984) and The Giant of
Thunder Mountain (1991, his last film). Slightly creased at upper right
blank margin. Minor surface creases (not evident head on). Fine
condition.
