Dick Martin (comedian)
Thomas Richard "Dick" Martin (January 30, 1922 – May 24, 2008) was an American comedian and director. He was known for his role as the cohost of the sketch comedy program ''Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In'' from 1968 to 1973.
==Early life and career==
Martin graduated from Michigan State University. Early in his career, Martin was a staff writer for ''Duffy's Tavern'', a radio situation comedy. Martin and Dan Rowan formed the comedy team Rowan and Martin in 1952, and played in nightclubs across the United States and overseas. They were a quick and easy match; their first comedy routine, in which Martin played a drunk heckling a Shakespearean performer, was a mainstay of their live act for years. The duo could frequently be seen as host-performers on NBC's ''Colgate Comedy Hour,'' alternating with Dean Martin and Lewis (Jerry) and other more established names. In 1958 they starred in a feature film, Hal Kanter's comedy Western ''Once Upon a Horse'', which failed to catch on with moviegoers. In 1960, their contract with NBC was cancelled four years early by mutual consent.
In 1962 Martin worked solo, playing next-door neighbor to Lucille Ball during the first season of her comeback sitcom ''The Lucy Show''. He and Rowan returned to the nightclub circuit until 1966, when they were tapped to host the summer replacement series for ''the Dean Martin Show''. Martin co-starred in the 1966 movie ''The Glass Bottom Boat'' with Rod Taylor and Doris Day.
