Gabe Kaplan started out as a stand-up comedian, appearing in nightclubs and
on television. Growing up in Brooklyn gave him the idea for a television show,
Welcome Back, Kotter. He based the characters on his high school class and cast
himself as their wise-cracking teacher. The rest is history as the show rose to the
top ten and remained there for four seasons. Gabe went on to star in the films Fast
Break, Tulips and Nobody’s Perfect while continuing to perform stand-up in Las
Vegas and Atlantic City as well as touring with the show, Groucho which became a
well-received HBO special.
Opening for Gabe is his daughter, singer Rachel Kaplan. Rachel’s voice has been
described as a mix of smooth soul and jazz and it has been said that she has a
sense of humor as good as the music itself. |
