Description:
From his early days growing up in Kenosha, Wisconsin, to his career as a traveling nightclub comic, Pete Christensen’s life has been filled with a wide range of experiences; some tragic, some pleasurable. The stages of his life have often been bounded and influenced by the women he has encountered and loved along the way; as well as the many friends he has made in his life (although he often wonders why they would want to be seen with him).
This is his story. From Kenosha, to a job on a merchant ship that took him to many parts of the world, to radio and TV gigs; and always to the nearest comedy club or any other venue that would actually pay money to host his rye brand of humor.
It’s also a story of the women in his life, including girl friends, failed marriages and relationships, and to his current wife — a most unusual woman. And it’s a story of his heroic battle with cancer.
The story is filled with humor and tragedy. Shakespeare would have loved it.
