64 Who Do You Think You Are?
Michael Colyar
“Who are you? Ask you who you are. Ask yourself.
And if you know who you are, then everything just gets to be easier.”Dubbed “The King of Venice Beach,” Colyar made his mark in the hearts
and minds of his audiences on the Boardwalk of Venice Beach California
with his thought-provoking humor. Every Saturday and Sunday for over
nine years he would perform five one-hour shows a day to audiences of
all ages, races, and backgrounds.
Colyar’s informative and highly entertaining brand of comedy not
only demands but guarantees positive response. As “Host” of “Live From
LA,” his point blank delivery and razor-sharp insight connected with the
guests who joined him on the sofa, as-well-as audiences of all ages,
coast to coast.
Colyar gained notable attention in 1990 when he was the $100,000
Grand Prize Comedy champion of “Star Search”, the nationally televised
talent competition, donating $50,000 to homeless charities in the Los
Angeles area.
In addition to Hosting “Live From LA,” one of cable televisions
most popular talk shows four nights a week, Colyar had had feature roles
in numerous films and TV shows, “Hosted” HBO Def Comedy Jam, and
performs at comedy clubs and concert halls, continues to be active in
fundraisers and benefits for community and national organizations, and
whenever possible, if Colyar is in concert performance, you will find him
stopping by a neighborhood school, youth center, or homeless shelter
sharing the laughter practicing what he preaches; “What I give my brother,
I give myself.”

adventurer of this life, you know, I really dig being here. Every day is a
great adventure for me, and although what I do now is comedy and act, it
wouldn’t matter. Whatever I was doing, I would go at it with the same
energy. I get up in the morning and I can’t wait to get the day started. I
