Before there was Def Jam, Comedy Central or Comic view, There was The Comedy Act Theater e (CAT). Just Ask Chris Tucker, Mark Curry, Eddie Murphy, Robert Townsend, Damon Wayans and a mad number of others to name an individual who has been singularly responsible for nurturing and launching the careers of most of the Country�s superstar Black comedians, and they will each name maverick entrepreneur Michael Williams. When he opened the doors of the CAT in 1985, Williams, a native California, was realizing a vision. Vision: the thing that gave Bob Johnson BET, gave Bill Gates Microsoft, and gave Cosby 'the show'
