Bill Kirchenbauer has a kind face.
The kind you've seen a thousand times before on television. He is a
boundless bald teddy bear of energy, who embodies the very essence of
everyman. And right now he is one of the most sought-after entertainers
on the entertainment event market.
Kirchenbauer's experience with making people laugh goes back to his
early childhood. Rumor has it that he sold out sandboxes across the
country with his pre-pubescent standup routine. A long run in a variety
of schools -- his father was in the military -- gave him the diversity
of experience.
While others studied marketing strategy, Kirchenbauer studied mime,
ventriloquism, and improvisation, leading up to his winning the first
Stand Up Competition in Los Angeles in 1978. Soon after that victory,
Kirchenbauer appeared on Late Night With David Letterman and The
Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. Carson liked Kirchenbauer so much
he booked him for 10 more appearances.
It wasn't long until the television and film industry got wind of this
tornado of talent and snatched him up. He proved to be a formidable
acting talent, as well.
He has appeared in many film projects, including Airplane, National
Lampoon, and Stoogemania, as well as regular starring roles on
television series including Fernwood Tonight, Mork & Mindy, Night
Court, and Totally Hidden Video.
It was during the popular series Growing Pains, that ABC executives
decided it was time for Kirchenbauer to have his own television show,
and created Just the Ten of Us. It proved to be a ratings hit, and
Kirchenbauer is known worldwide as the irascible, but lovable, "Coach
Lubbock". The show is currently seen in many foreign countries, as well
as in the United States on the USA Network.
Kirchenbauer's true love has always been the stage - making live
audiences convulse with laughter. After appearances on The Arsenio Hall
Show, Comic Strip Live, Evening at the Improv, and hosting Into the
Night, Kirchenbauer made his decision to hit the road.
Currently, Bill is appearing in the new Rob Reiner/Universal pictures
Release, "THE STORY OF US" along with Bruce Willis and Michelle
Pheiffer, and can be seen in the soon to be released Eric Roberts
feature, "THE PRESIDENT". Mercedes/Benzs' newest TV campaign also
features Bill.
His ability to sell out comedy clubs throughout the country has made
him a much sought-after entertainer. But it is Kirchenbauer's
flexibility that makes him even more desirable. He is one of the few
comedians who does well in any situation, with any audience. He
recently headlined aboard the Royal Caribbean Cruise lines. The
response was so great he ranked No. 2 in passenger requests (No. 1, of
course, was motion sickness pills).
One of Kirchenbauer's best talents is the ability to adapt to any
entertainment situation. He has an appeal to people of all types and
ages -- whether it's serving as master of ceremonies for award
presentations, headlining roasts for corporate and private functions,
or just as an invited guest to add a breath of fresh comedy air to a
dull business meeting, Kirchenbauer seems to be comfortable anywhere he
is invited, and those around him are comfortable with him.
Kirchenbauer is known for his ability to tailor his act to fit any
occasion. He can deftly integrate the company or function into his
routines, and his skills as an improviser allow him to run with the
ball, no matter what the event.
Whatever your entertainment needs, Kirchenbauer is your man. he is a
marketing person's dream.
With nationwide recognition, Kirchenbauer offers to an entertainment
event the professionalism and performance appeal that keeps his talents
in high demand.
