Mark Preston was asked to open for the First Lady of Comedy, Phyllis Diller. "I love to refer to Mark Preston as my protégé", said Ms. Diller. "He has one of the strongest, most beautiful voices I have ever heard. He really gets to an audience. He sings, acts, emotes, is handsome...everything".
Mark's unique talent preceded him. He was asked to join the world-famous recording group, 'The Lettermen'. Mark accepted and performed for a total of 11 years with the group.
