Step By Step to Stand-Up Comedy


Browes Through My Book
. Or You Can Buy My Book @
Amazon.com.

Foreword By the Great Steve Allen


How-to books about comedy are a dime a dozen. I’ve written two of them myself. But some are better than others-the present volume, for example, by Greg Dean

A good many of point on which Dean offers instructions are lessons I had to learn the hard way. I wish books of this sort had been available in those days.

Most of us would never dream of offering professional advice to a TV repairman, a brain surgeon, or a defensive lineman for e the Chicago Bears, but we all apparently view ourselves as qualified to offer advice to Eddie Murphy, Jackie Mason or Dennis Miller.

Greg Dean, by way of contrast, know the territory he’s writing about and provides a wealth of nuts-and-bolts advice about the kinds of stories that audiences will interpret as funny. --Steve Allen

Long time, you were the first comedy seminar I ever attended when you were on Hollywood blvd over 12 years ago. Still have notes of yours that I keep. Glad you still teaching it provided a solid foundation for me.

I read your book several years ago and it did a great job of explaining what a joke is. Thanks for writing it. It helped in my development as a comic.

greg, i just finished the book and it was great. It helped unravel alot of confusion and god willing it will be the one thing that catapults me to super stardom, billions of dollars and a entourage of insanely beautiful women or at least to spliting a few sides.

Hi Greg,

Ironically, I have your book "Step By Step To Stand-up Comedy" sitting right next to my computer. I highly recommend it for all levels of comics. I'm going to re-read it because I want to improve.

Thanks for the add. Keep up the good work!!!
