David J. VanDam (April 17, 1955 â€" July 3, 2018), well known as "Evil
Dave Letterman" or simply "Evil Dave", was an American voice
impressionist who began appearing on The Howard Stern Show in 1999
until his death. VanDam did a perfect voice imitation of American late
night talk show host David Letterman, which was used for comedic
effect.VanDam's first appearance on The Howard Stern Show occurred on
December 8, 1999. Using his "Letterman voice", he called in making
jokes about Jay Leno, Letterman's rival late night talk show host. The
next day, Stern read an article from the New York Post explaining that
an advisor of the real Letterman had to announce that the caller was
actually not the real Letterman. VanDam was later called back to be
congratulated, and Stern expressed his interest in the impression and
the reaction it received. Stern then told VanDam that he would contact
him to make more appearances, as well as writing "filthy" lines that
the real Letterman would not say.VanDam would continue calling in the
show throughout 2000 until he made his first live studio appearance on
July 27, 2001 when he took part in The Gossip Game with Mike Walker, a
weekly show segment, under the identity of "David E. Letterman." The
visit was a success, and VanDam would make three to five studio visits
a year from 2001 to 2005, until Stern left terrestrial radio.Following
the show's move to Sirius XM Radio in January 2006, VanDam's first
appearance on Howard 100 occurred during an episode of Tissue Time
with Heidi Cortez, before the show's inaugural broadcast. VanDam's
first call was on January 13, 2006, which was planned as a series of
pranks on the new show announcer George Takei. VanDam called in as
Letterman to dupe Takei into reading a Top 10 list about William
Shatner on the day's Late Show with David Letterman. Dave VanDam Biography, NetWorth, Height, Age, Weight, Family, Married, Son, Daughter
