Laura Crocker, Seattle booker, producer
She is described in the obituary in the Post-Intelligencer as “the den mother for Seattle’s comics.”
“She was the first real comedy producer/promoter in Seattle,” said Ronald S. “Ron Reid” Brown, her husband and regional manager of Comedy Underground. “She created all this opportunity for people not only to practice their comedy, but to get paid for it.”
In lieu of flowers, Crocker’s family asks that donations be made to Equine Rescue Association, 2415 116th St. N.E., Marysville, WA 98271.
A memorial is planned Sept. 9 at the family’s home in north Seattle.
