edy fans nominate Don Barnhart for 2009 Best Comedian in Las Vegas.
Each year, the Las Vegas Review Journal newspapers asks their readers to vote for their favorite things in Las Vegas and this year comedy fans are voting Don Barnhart the 2009 Best Comedian in Las Vegas. Its not your typical contest as its entirely fan based and only one vote is counted. Readers can either mail or vote online.
It seems as Don Barnharts comedy star is rising fast. Past winners include George Carlin, Rita Rudner, Carrot Top, George Wallace and Louie Anderson. Im just thrilled to have my name associated with such comedy greats and legends as Im still a huge fan of them all and try to see their shows when Im not performing my own. said Barnhart from a recent phone interview where he was on tour headlining for Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines.
Besides his numerous Vegas shows, Barnhart continues to tour worldwide headlining the top comedy clubs across the country as well as entertaining the troops for the USO and Comics On Duty. He has plans to go back to Iraq and Afghanistan later in the year. When asked why? Don replied, Ive been fortunate to make a comfortable living doing what I love and its just one way to put something back. We all have an obligation to support our troops and this is my way by going over there to do shows and let them know we care.
Barnhart has been doing shows for the troops since 1992 and is also working on a documentary and a Welcome Home concert. We are currently looking for sponsors and are trying to put together a concert and have a gift pack to present to the troops when they come home. The concert would feature all the top Vegas based comedians and the basket would include a gift cards to different restaurants, clothing stores, night clubs, gym memberships, spas and anything else we can get to make their homecoming and transition a bit easier, said Barnhart. We would like to start in Vegas and then get national sponsorship to make it a nation wide event.

Barnharts popularity might also have something to do with his numerous television and film projects that he has brought the Vegas community. Since moving to Vegas several years ago, Barnharts intent was to make Las Vegas the home base for his independent TV and film production company, Don Barnhart Entertainment and it has certainly paid off.
Two of Don Barnhart Entertainments projects are nominated for Best Use Of Las Vegas in TV or Movies; China Dolls for Feature Film and The Freedom of Speech Comedy Show for Television.
