Tom Cotter - Inducted April 4, 2014

Tom Cotter took the nation by storm as a breakthru star and runner-up on the television talent show competition America's Got Talent.

But before that, it all started back in little Rhody. Tom grew up the youngest of 6 siblings on the East Side of Providence. He began his comedy career in the 1980's with regular performances at comedy clubs around New England.

As his star began to rise, Tom found himself winning several comedy competitions like The Boston Comedy Festival, Seattle's International Comedy Competition, and was voted Best Stand-up at the Las Vegas Comedy Festival.

Despite losing to a dog act on Season 7 of AGT, Tom has continued to impress and bring laughs to audiences around the country. He has also appeared on The Howard Stern Show, The Tonight Show, The Late Late Show and had his own half hour Comedy Central Special.
