TAMPA - You may know him as 'The Ladies' Man,' but Tim Meadows is one of the longest-running cast members on Saturday Night Live.

Meadows crafted some of the series' most memorable characters including Leon Phelps, Lionel Osbourne - host of the fictional public affairs show 'Perspectives,' as well as impressions of OJ Simpson, Ike Turner, and Sammy Davis, Jr.

Born in Highland Park, Michigan, and raised in Detroit, Meadows studied television and radio broadcasting at Wayne State University before performing improvisational comedy at the Soup Kitchen Saloon.

In 1985, Meadows relocated to Chicago, where he first joined ImprovOlympic, and then the legendary comedy troupe Second City.

Meadows starred in high-profile films based on Saturday Night Live sketches, including Coneheads, Wayne's World 2, and of course - The Ladies' Man.

He is a regular correspondent on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson on CBS and The Colbert Report on Comedy Central.

You can see Tim Meadows live right here at Side Splitters Comedy Club in Tampa - now through Saturday.  Ticket prices range between $20 and $25, and can be purchased by visiting www.SideSplittersComedy.com .
