Marc Summers
- Producer
- Actor
- Writer
Born in Indianapolis, he paid his dues as a magician, disc jockey,
comedian and studio page in Los Angeles during the 1970s. When
Jack Barry's announcer fell sick on
The Joker's Wild (1972),
1973, Marc (then a 22-year-old page) filled in. That was his break. He
began warming up audiences for network programs like
Soap (1977),
Star Search (1983) and
Alice (1976), gaining exposure that
finally led to his "organic" misadventures on Nickelodeon's
Double Dare (1986) (which he
hosted from 1986 to 1994) and
What Would You Do? (1991).
