About Me

Known for his comedic acumen and biting academic responses, Cotolo has made his living as a writer and a performer all of his life and during the lives of others. He is also a courageous sort, having once rowed the length of the Mississippi River using only a 12-inch ruler.

Some of Cotolo's work is in the Smithsonian, though no public viewing is allowed without expressed, written permission from Major League Baseball. In his mid-50s, he is the author of License To Skill , a book, and has co-authored its screenplay version. His current work-in-progress is the novel, The Halls of Knowledge .

Cotolo, born in Brooklyn in 1950, has worked in broadcasting, film, theater, music, television and can be seen briefly in the major motion picture, Meteor . His auto-biography, Arrive Late, Leave Early And Do Nothing Inbetween , is currently being researched.
