Well....it has been quite a journey as this wholesome all-American boy has grown into a crazy old liberal! It was John’s performances in the major showrooms of Las Vegas that established him as one of America’s foremost entertainers. American audiences probably know him best as the TV host of The Hollywood Squares, and That’s Incredible! , as well as the guest host of The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson (80 evenings, more than any other singer). Over 50 years ago, John graduated with a B.A. from the theater arts department at Denison University and arrived on Broadway where he debuted in Foxy, starring Burt Lahr. Later he would star in State Fair and win a Theater Guild Award for playing Curly in the Broadway revival of Oklahoma! He went on to tour the US in multiple Broadway musicals. TV producer Bob Banner molded John's career by casting him in (his TV debut) in The Fantasticks. He then hosted his own daytime talk show as well as The Kraft Summer Music Hall with regulars George Carlin, Flip Wilson, and Richard Pryor. Banner was also responsible for 13 Columbia Records albums. Along the way, John and his wife, Rhonda created the geography card game BORDERLINE USA and he wrote a book and a play, and John played The Wizard in the Broadway musical Wicked. https://www.johndavidson.com https://youtu.be/bEwXPujMl_k https://twitter.com/johnhamdavidson https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0203384 https://www.nhmagazine.com/acting-your-age-john-davidson
