Born in Brooklyn, Rob is best known for his 31 year tenure with the Imus in the Morning Program, providing many of the show's most popular characters. In the early 1980's he was one of the three members of the Improv Group, 'The Identical Triplets', with Eddie Murphy, and when the group went their separate ways he began a 10 year career as a National Stand Up Comic Headliner. He made his Broadway debut as author and star of 'More to Love, A Big Fat Comedy', with Dana Reeve, and his many Broadway roles include Mushnik in the Original Broadway Cast of "Little Shop of Horrors", Amos Hart in "Chicago", Speed in "The Odd Couple" with Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick, and the dual character roles of 'Mr. Twimble' and "Wally Womper" in the Broadway Revival of "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" with Daniel Radcliffe. Off Broadway, Rob won a Drama Desk Award for his role in 'Tabletop'. Along with appearances on The David Letterman Show, and Late Night With Conan O'Brien, Rob won Two Emmy Awards for his 'Not For Profit Television Special' and had recurring Television roles as Troy, the Security Guard in ABC's "Ugly Betty", Defense Attorney Milton Schoenfeld in 'Law and Order: Special Victims Unit" on NBC, Bond Attorney Bernie Bucovitz on the last season of the hit CBS drama "The Good Wife", and Guest Starred' in a five episode story arc on "Elementary" as Captain Dwyer.

He is also considered one of the 'Top Ten Worst Announcers in Professional Wrestling History' for his work as one of the original hosts of 'WWF Monday Night Raw', and, one day, hopes he will achieve the honor of being named Number 1.

Currently, Rob hosts 'The Rob Bartlett Radio Comedy Hour', which he also writes, with the venerable Andrew Smith
