Comic to charm students, parents

Ohio University will host comedian Ben Bailey tomorrow for Parents Weekend.

Bailey, a native of New Jersey, has been performing stand-up comedy for more than 10 years in Los Angeles and New York City.

As the host of the Discovery Channel's Cash Cab and Cash Cab: After Dark game shows where players win money by answering trivia questions, Bailey drives a cab through New York City picking up contestants.

Entertainment Weekly named Bailey to its Must List in 2006, and he was nominated last year for a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Game Show Host.

He has also appeared in many television shows and movies, including One Life to Live, NBC's Law and Order Special Victims Unit, Fox's MADtv and Spider-Man 2.

Bailey's performance begins at 8 p.m. tomorrow in Templeton-Blackburn Alumni Memorial Auditorium. Tickets are $8 for students and $10 for non-students.
