I’m Cliff Yates, I spent 35 years as a police officer from upstate New York to Los Angeles. For 25 years I was a cop by day and comedian by night. After being featured on a local Los Angeles tv show, I became known as L.A’s Comedy Cop. I have always loved performing. I have produced some of my own big comedy specials. I have produced comedy specials at the Hollywood Palladium, Roxy on Sunset, and the El Portal theatre in North Hollywood. In 1991 I created an amazing bad attitude. Frustrated fed up and discouraged I got my real estate license to pursue a new career. My real estate broker sent me to a business seminar by Jim Rohn. I found out he was the original mentor of Tony Robbins, who I had never heard of before. In 1996 I went to a Tony Robbins seminar, and that changed my thinking, attitude and life. When I changed everything changed for me. I was promoted to Sergeant and I began acting and producing my own comedy show. For the past 20 years I have been reading everything I can on personal development, psychology and motivation. My focus has recently narrowed to writing and producing.
