Danny Gans (October 25, 1956 – May 1, 2009) was an American singer and comedian who found success as a vocal impressionist. Gans was a headliner on the Las Vegas Strip and the surrounding area for many years, where he was billed as "The Man of Many Voices". He had been named Las Vegas Entertainer of the Year, and his production had also been awarded Show of the Year. As these awards would indicate, his fame was largely centered in Las Vegas.
Gans had been noted many times for his role in Bull Durham, although his part in the movie was ultimately downsized. He used this role as an addition to his resume, even going on Roy Firestone`s show and promoting the role while holding a picture of himself from the movie to prove that he was in fact in it. Danny Gans played Scott Babylon in the TV series "Duet" from 1987-1989, and reprised his role in the TV series "Open House" from 1989-1990. He also played a Wayne Newton impersonator on an episode of "Roseanne" when they went to Las Vegas for the wedding of Arnie and Nancy.
