bobstromberg.comBio
For over thirty years Bob Stromberg has been delighting audiences of all ages with his perfect blend of standup, story and schtick. Always clean, his presentation is a disarming healthy blend of knee-slapping comedy and wholesome encouragement. Bob's remarkable gift is his ability to interact with an audience and facilitate surprising laughter with an arsenal of gifts including physical comedy, a non threatening touch of audience participation and yes…even hand shadows, which the London Metro described as stunning. Add to this hilarious and tender stories from his own experience and audiences leave amazed, refreshed and different than when they came. He has been a featured and favorite emcee for many large stadium and arena gatherings. He has written the best selling Why Geese Fly Farther than Eagles , Finding the Magnificent in Lower Mundane and the beautifully illustrated book for families, The Miracle at Stinky Bay. Many recognize Bob from his performance on the awarding winning TV show Bananas. Perhaps most notably, he coauthored and starred in the megahit theatrical production Triple Espresso, (A Highly Caffeinated Comedy) . From it’s start in Minneapolis, Triple Espresso, described by the Los Angeles Times as a triple jolt of inspired craziness grew to ten casts, has been seen by over a million people in dozens of cities from Seattle to The West End of London and become the longest running stage production in the history of San Diego, Minneapolis, and the entire state of Iowa. In his role, the Chicago Sun Times described Bob as a mesmerizing physical comedian. Visit Triple Espresso at www.tripleespresso.com.Influences
The Smothers Brothers, The VanDyke brothers (Dick and Jerry), the whole cast from Mayberry and pretty much any vaudevillian who ever appeared on Ed Sullivan. Then throw in a little Cosby, Victor Borge, Marceau and Montanaro.

Who I'd like to meet:
Visit Bob's Website here: www.bobstromberg.comBob on Compassion International
For nearly twenty years Bob and Judy Stromberg have supported the work of Compassion International and when given the opportunity Bob often presents Compassion as part of his presentations. Please take a moment to check out this great ministry and consider sponsoring a child today. You really can save a life by lifting a child out of poverty and giving hope where none exists. Honestly, with so little you can do so much.
You can also view slide shows from the Stromberg’s recent trips with Compassion. Bob and Judy visited two of their sponsored children, five year old Luana in Brazil and twelve year old Axel in Guatemala. The deplorable conditions that many children must endure are obvious in these photos but so are the smiling faces of those blessed to be sponsored through Compassion. The Compassion children are easily recognizable by their cleanliness and joyful expressions. These children are loved. Those of you who are fans of Peder Eide or Ken Davis will notice that both families are sponsors.
