A former Manager of Public Relations and Marketing, Glickman switched from the "world of business" to "show business" in 1985. He opened South Florida's first successful chain of comedy clubs, initially named Coconuts and later renamed Uncle Funny's. He also opened comedy clubs in several Atlantic City casinos. Featured in Rolling Stone magazine and scores of other publications, Glickman has been the opening act for stars such as Ellen DeGeneres, Ray Romano, Barbara Mandrell, Carol Channing, and many more. Steve Martin personally selected him from over 100 comics for an appearance on a CBS comedy program.
In 1992, Glickman began focusing on shows for the corporate world and soon began to receive national attention. The winner of the Entenmann's National "Funniest Person in America" Contest from over 500 contestants, he has been featured on "Evening at the Improv" and several other national television shows. He even performed for Gloria Estefan's birthday party! His ability to customize humorous material specifically to the client increased the demand for his services.
Glickman's list of corporate clients continues to grow as fast as the positive word-of-mouth and industry "buzz" that follows each of his performances. He is an active member of the National Speakers Association and is President of the National Speakers Association of Central Florida.
