Gold Angel Winner 1997

TOM POSTON is a master of the art of befuddlement, confusion and around-the-barn logic and laughter. He has brought his own innovative brand of humor to such series as "Grace Under Fire", "Newhart" and "Mork and Mindy". He has guest starred on about every sitcom. As one producer said, "You listen to him for a couple of minutes and it doesn't matter what he says, you find yourself laughing". He came to Hollywood from Broadway where at the start he rented a room for $12.50 a month and was evicted after he was four months in arrears. Eventually he hosted a live television show, and won an Emmy for the befuddled "Everyman" on the "Steve Allen show". He was a regular panelist on "To Tell The Truth" and headlined his own series, "Split Personality". Roles in Broadway shows and road companies followed.

Excellence In Media takes pleasure in conferring on him a Gold Angel for the laughter and pure joy of life he has brought millions the world over.
