In 1996, in his small home town in Tennessee, Pat Dixon was an alcoholic dishwasher barely making ends meet. Having dropped out of college, and at the end of his
crumbling marriage, he began to pursue stand-up comedy.  It became an occasional job and full-time obsession and soon Pat began drifting fulltime from club to club across the U.S. in a stupor of cheap drinks and cheap laughs for cheap pay.  By spring 2000, he found himself spinning his wheels.  Emotionally exhausted, he was finally forced
to confront a drinking problem which he’d never quite looked square in the eye.
    The road chewed him up but didn’t spit him out and Dixon continued to work in the clubs, sharpening his comedy with his newly sober mind.  In 2003, he began to appear on television performing on Comedy Central’s “Premium Blend.”  Since then he’s been seen on “The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson”
(CBS), “The World Stands Up” (BBC), “Very Funny Live”(TBS) and his own half hour special “Comedy Central Presents: Pat Dixon” which debuted in April 2006 (almost six
years to the day since he quit drinking for good).  Dixon has also appeared as a correspondent for E! Television, CMT and most recently on the Fox News program “Red Eye.” 
He is also known by millions of radio listeners for his comedy movie reviews.
    After a 16 month stint of touring the U.S., he now lives in New York City where he has an apartment and a home group.
