BILLY ELMER

Billy Elmer  Billy Elmer started his comedy career in a high school comedy group. An actor in college, he formed the improvisational comedy troupe, "Hazel's Neighbors," which toured the club and college circuit to great acclaim. After life in the "Fat Lane" took its toll on his partners, Billy wandered aimlessly for an hour and decided to dedicate his life to comedy - or at least until he could do a Wendy's commercial.

    Billy has gone on to become one of the hottest comedians in the country. In addition to his many network television appearances, he was awarded an exclusive spot on "The Tonight Show" during the final few weeks of Johnny Carson's reign.

  Billy's successful stand-up career has not gone unnoticed by the film industry either. He makes an unforgettable appearance in "The Wedding Singer," (New Line Cinema), starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore. Billy has also made appearances in several other motion pictures, such as "Inspector Gadget," "Fear of a Black Hat," "Rock & Roll Mom" and "Day of the Dead."

  A regular headliner at The Comedy Stop at the Tropicana Hotel and Casino in both Las Vegas and Atlantic City, Bill also performs before sell-out crowds at clubs and colleges across the nation.
