Comedian Rudy Moreno dead at 66: The stand-up vet passed away after a stint in Los Angeles ICU


Rudy Moreno, a well-known figure in the Los Angeles comedy scene and a familiar face on television, has passed away at the age of 66. His agent confirmed he died in a hospital ICU.

All this ultimately led to me doing my Netflix special at the Ice House, thanks to Rudy Moreno constantly supporting me and letting me get stage time on all of his shows. Born and raised in Los Angeles' Lincoln Heights, Moreno 'started his career in show business at age 13, when he formed his first (of many) garage band, he then went on after high school to be a radio disc jockey, also working as a DJ in many Southern California nightclubs,' according to his bio on The Laugh Factory website. This marked the beginning of his career opening for various artists, a list that expanded to include Ice Cube, Natalie Cole, Los Lobos, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and the iconic Smokey Robinson, among others.
