Manage episode 311321538 series 3107216
You know him from Def Comedy Jam and BET's Comic View!!!
Listen as Mr. Littleton discusses in depth; his highs and his lows, the side of comedy you do not see, and stories you have not heard. His resilience and perseverance in all stages of his life make him a legend that I am very proud to know.
Darryl “D’ Militant” Littleton began his professional comedy career writing sketches for “The Tom Joyner Morning Show” on CBS Radio where he created the comedy persona, “D’Militant”. Soon afterwards he became a regular at the world famous Comedy Store and landed a job as D. L. Hughley’s exclusive writer during his tenure as host of BET’s Comic View. Darryl was promoted to writer/producer and penned material for Cedric the Entertainer, Sommore and Don DC Curry.
Mr. Littleton has appeared on Martin Lawrence’s 1st Amendment, Mo’Nique, Def Comedy Jam, Loco Comedy Jam, The Parent Hood, Townsend Television, Unsung Hollywood: The Jeffersons, Showtime at the Apollo, BET’s Comic View, Uptown Comedy Club, Unsung Hollywood: Wayne Brady, Byron Allen’s Comic’s Unleashed and ABC’s America’s Funniest People where he was the Grand Prize Winner. Littleton’s film credits include, Diamond Dawgs and All Lies on Me.
He has written several books that gives us insight into the world of comedy from his many encounters, friendships, and experiences with outstanding comics that we know and love!
His soon-to- be released, and highly anticipated book, “This Day in Comedy: The Ethnic Encyclopedia of Laughter” is one you must get your hands on!!
This Day in Comedy is not just an encyclopedia, of just about every ethnic comic and performer that you have ever heard of, but it is also a celebration of comedy. It gives insight into the world of comedy that you may or may not know. This encyclopedia will offer rare, and in some cases never-before-seen photos and obscure facts, making it an indispensable comedy essential.
Thank you Mr. Littleton, and thank you to the other extraordinary comedians, comediennes, and performers for bringing us smiles and laughter. The show must go on, and you have made it your duty to bring it, in spite of what you may have going on in your own lives, and for that we are grateful!
