    BILL COSBY Biography Bill Cosby is, by any standards, one of the most influential stars in America today. Whether it be through concert appearances or recordings, television or films, commercials or education, Bill Cosby has the ability to touch people’s lives. His humor often centers on the basic cornerstones of our existence, seeking to provide an insight into our roles as parents, children, family members, and men and women. Without resorting to gimmickry or lowbrow humor, Bill Cosby’s comedy has a point of reference and respect for the trappings and traditions of the great American humorists such as Mark Twain, Buster Keaton and Jonathan Winters. The 1984-92 run of The Cosby Show and his books Fatherhood and Time Flies established new benchmarks on how success is measured. His status at the top of the TVQ survey year after year continues to confirm his appeal as one of the most popular personalities in America. For his philanthropic efforts and positive influence as a performer and author, Cosby was honored with a 1998 Kennedy Center Honors Award. In 2002, he received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, America’s highest civilian honor, was the 2009 recipient of the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor and the Marian Anderson Award.

  • Bill Cosby Friday, November 13
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE FEBRUARY 24, 2009 RIVER ROCK CASINO RESORT PRESENTS BILL COSBY FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 13 FOR TWO SHOWS … ONE NIGHT ONLY! Richmond, BC – Over the past century, few entertainers have achieved the legendary status of William H. Cosby Jr. His successes span five decades and virtually all media … remarkable accomplishments for a kid who emerged from humble beginnings in a Philly project. In the 60’s, his stand-up act was a coast-to-coast sensation spawning a string of hilarious, best-selling comedy albums which went on to earn eight Gold records, five Platinum records and five Grammy Awards. His role on NBC’s I Spy made him the first African-American to co-star in a dramatic series breaking television’s racial barrier and winning three Emmy Awards. His first sitcom, The Bill Cosby Show ran on NBC for two seasons from 1969 to 1971. Then in the 80’s, he again rocked the television world with his second sitcom, The Cosby Show … a gentle, whimsical and hugely successful series that single-handedly revived the family sitcom … and rescued NBC. The series ran for a total of eight seasons. During the 90’s, he hosted a syndicated revival of the classic Groucho Marx game show, You Bet Your Life and starred in his third sitcom, Cosby which aired on CBS for four seasons and co- starred Phylicia Rashad, his on-screen wife from The Cosby Show. He also hosted CBS’s Kids Say the Darndest Things. With hit films including Uptown Saturday Night and best-selling books such as Fatherhood, Bill Cosby is quite simply a national treasure with the unique ability to touch people’s hearts … while at the same time, making them laugh.

    COVERING THE TV BEAT: The good news that Rochester was to have another TV station operated jointly by WHEC and WVET was dampened this week by the announcement that the FCC had again held up approval be- cause of a complaint filed by station WSAY. In view of the fact that WSAY waited five days to file their complaint as well as their appiication for the channel allotment given to the two Rochester radio stations makes it difficult to under- stand why the FCC acted in this manner., . .... Making up for this somwhat , was the announcement by the FCC that approval had been granted for an UHF station to WRNY, also of Roches- t e r . The big question on everyone's lips is,"Just when do we get more local TV?" Best bet is to put up an outdoor ant- enna and get your variety from Syracuse and Buffalo stations . , ... .. The Rochester Public Library and WHAM-TV believe they have another first in television with their new series call- ed "GATEWAY TO KNOWLEDGE" seen Mondays at 12:45 -pm . This is said to be the only such regular series of its type in the country . During the course of the shows planned they expect to present the many different services that your library performes in the community in addition to providing books of all kinds. Host for the new program will be Rutherford D. Rogers, director of -the Rochester Public Library System . ... Stations WSYR and WSYR-TV became "newspapers of the air" during the recent newspaper strike in Syracuse.
