Born in 1835, he “came in with Halley’s Comet” and went out with it 75 years later in 1910.

MR. MIKE RANDALL began impersonating Mark Twain at the age of seventeen. Two years later he was performing his solo show at the Buffalo Showboat. At age 20 he performed for the State Department in Washington, D. C. and one year later he brought his rendition of the celebrated humorist to New York City’s only off-Broadway dinner theatre The Little Hippodrome.

In 2001 Mike Randall began appearing as Mark Twain for the annual Huck Finn Jubilee-California’s largest Blue Grass Festival. Touring his portrayal for more than 49 years and over 2000 performances, the actor continues to enjoy his close encounter with Mark Twain.
