From his many appearances on the Late Show with David Letterman to his weekly picks segment on the Fox NFL pregame show with Terry Bradshaw, Howie Long, and Jimmy Johnson, comedian/actor/impressionist Frank Caliendo has been the talk of the town on television. Known for his "dead on" impressions of famous actors, from Al Pacino to Robert DeNiro, and politicians, from George W. Bush to Bill Clinton, this 7 year veteran of sketch comedy (MadTV) launched his own show, Frank TV, in 2007 on the TBS network.

Like many of his classmates, Dave Werner took his Yale Law degree to a Washington, D.C. firm to launch his career. And launch it he did, only not in the way he though he would. On a lark, he entered a contest to be crowned the "Funniest Lawyer in Washington." He won, and his career took off in a new direction.

Most everyone who went to high school with Newark-born Jason Alexander knew that the lad was destined to become a major presence everywhere he went. Though inclined to stoutness - and baldness - from age 16 onward, the five foot-five Alexander demonstrated such a command of the stage that he was awarded Tony and Grammy awards for his participation in Jerome Robbins' Broadway. He also represents 25% of the legendary cast of one of television's most popular shows of all time, Seinfeld. Alexander has also enjoyed a prosperous film career, having starred in such movies as Shallow Hal and Pretty Woman. With all of those credits under his belt, one would think his cup was full.

Every four years, Washington is given center stage for everything presidential. The candidates may be campaigning from state to state, but the end of the line is at the White House steps. For what is shaping up to become one of the most important election years in American history, add some political and comical flair to your next event by booking the now legendary Capitol Steps. What began as a group of Senate staffers who set out to satirize the very people and places that employed them, has become a D.C. institution founded on?satirizing the very people and places that on The Hill.
