Tim Babb is half Black, half Italian…but all geek! Tim Babb began his career as an air personality on Mix 106.5FM in San Jose, California. He honed his craft representing the radio station by hosting many on-site events through out the Bay Area. Doing stand-up for so many years in the shadow of San Francisco resulted in an act that takes the edge of the big city and combines it with the geek factor of the Silicon Valley...with a splash of energy that's all Babb.
There is hilarity all around us, but sometimes it takes a human cartoon like Tim to make us see it. He picks up many different rocks and finds what's funny underneath. He's successfully worked with such varied acts as Christopher Titus, Sinbad, Shang, and 'Weird Al' Yankovic. He was a semi-finalist in the 2007 California Comedy Festival in Los Angeles and a finalist in the 2007 Rocky Mountain Laugh-Off in Salt Lake City. He was also a finalist in the 2003 Laugh Across America Comedy Competition in Las Vegas as well as 4 years in a row at the San Jose Improv Battle of the Bay Competition.

TIM BABB! I had a dream last night that we made the save her pass video and you had a stitch doll land on my face and stay there! I woke up laughing! In the midwest :( so far from the happiest place! I really miss it - longest I've been without. Hope everything is great in your world.
Please help Walter Koenig, "Chekov from Star Trek TOS", Get His Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame! Walter has been nominated for his star and waltersstar.com has raised the money to manufacture and install the star (Thanks!). All Walter needs now is the votes of the Walk of Fame Committee. Write to the Walk of Fame Committee a polite letter in your own words, why you think Walter should have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. These NEED to be letters from each individual fan in the fan's own words. Not copies, Not form letters, Not chain letters.
