Roy Firestone Biography
Critically acclaimed as a performer, monologist, humorist, musician, and impressionist, Roy Firestone is one of the nation’s sought-after live corporate performers, keynote speakers, and lecturers.
Firestone has performed in more than two thousand venues over two decades. He recently shared the stage with performers Josh Groban, Reba McEntire, David Foster, Forrest Whitaker, and Jon Bon Jovi. His multi-media performances, known for blending humor, storytelling, and musical impressions, have been featured in venues like Las Vegas and The Grand Ole Opry, engaging a wide range of audiences at major sporting events and conventions worldwide.
As an actor, Firestone was featured in the Academy Award-winning film "Jerry Maguire", where he played himself in a memorable scene with Academy Award-winner Cuba Gooding Jr. His numerous television credits include "Everybody Loves Raymond" and "Married with Children." Fans of "The Simpsons" remember him as the voice of ‘Bart Starr.’ No stranger to talk shows, Firestone’s appearances include "Late Night with David Letterman", "Later with Bob Costas", "Larry King Live", and "The Tonight Show."
Firestone is also an accomplished musical vocalist. He recently released his first CD, "Another Voice", produced and backed by Grammy Award-winning fusion band, Hiroshima. He is known for his musical performances which are often integrated into his keynote presentations.
Firestone is a seven-time Emmy Award-winning and seven-time cable ACE Award-winning host, interviewer, narrator, writer, and producer. As the ground-breaking, original host of ESPN’s legendary "Up Close", "Up Close Classic" and "Up Close Primetime", Firestone has interviewed more than 5,000 athletes, musicians, actors, political figures, as well as scores of writers and filmmakers.
Firestone has recently hosted Public Television's "LA Tonight" which featured interviews with an eclectic list of legendary music, entertainment, and sports figures, including composer Burt Bacharach, record producer David Foster, songwriter Diane Warren, and tennis great Andre Agassi, among many others.
Sports Illustrated calls Firestone "The best interviewer in the business." The late Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Jim Murray once said, “Roy Firestone isn’t just the best sports interviewer I’ve ever seen, he's the best interviewer period. That includes Diane Sawyer, Barbara Walters, Mike Wallace, Morley Safer, any and all of them.”
Not limited to television, Firestone is also prolific on the printed page — as the author of best-selling books "Up Close with Roy Firestone", and most recently, "Don’t Make Me Cry, Roy". His books and keynote speeches reflect his expertise in creating engaging, reflective, and entertaining narratives.
