Tommy Chong May 12, 2006

Grammy Award winning comedian Tommy Chong is legendary for his invaluable contribution to American counterculture as part of the comedy team Cheech & Chong. During their reign, the twosome recorded six gold comedy albums, including the 1974 Grammy winner Los Cochinos, and starred in seven films, most of which Chong co-wrote and directed.

After Up in Smoke, Cheech & Chong starred in a string of successful films. These films remain huge video rentals and a regular diet of daily television. Chong went solo in the 1990 Far Out Man which he wrote and directed. Chong has appeared in over twenty movies with screenwriter, director, and producer credits to his name. The September 1998 issue of High Times magazine, featured Chong on the cover was one of their best selling issues to date. Chongs cover outsold George Carlin, Kurt Cobain and Jerry Garcia. Chong made a guest appearance on ABCs Dharma & Greg, November 1999, and currently has a reoccurring role as Leo on Fox's That 70 s Show.
