Publisher's Summary

Just Stand Up - A Tribute to Black Comedians, is packed with memorable and hilarious characters from the world of black humor and entertainment in the 20th century and provides an in-depth look at the lives and careers of these towering performers and how they made it to the top in the business, sometimes against all the odds.
It is a glowing tribute to the men and women who paved the way, like Jackie Moms Mabley, Redd Foxx and Nipsey Russell, and the ones who followed in their footsteps and developed the unique style and comedy that is African-American humor, like Richard Prior, Eddie Murphy, Bernie Mac and others.
Complete with interesting life facts, the outstanding accomplishments they achieved and brief bios, Just Stand Up is book that pays well deserved homage to some of the best known African-American comedy celebrities like no other.

Read the book...

The narration was horrible. No editing whatsoever so you had to listen to the narrator attempt and struggle on several occasions to pronounce names and words...often unsuccessfully.
I would have enjoyed this book had I read it the old fashioned way.
