About Jackie Mason
Jackie Mason (born Yacov Moshe Maza; June 9, 1928 - July 24, 2021) was an American stand-up comedian and actor. His 1986 one-man show The World According to Me! won a Special Tony Award, an Outer Critics Circle Award, an Ace Award, and an Emmy Award, and he wrote and performed six one-man shows on Broadway. Born in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, into a family of strict Orthodox Jews descended from a long line of rabbis, he became a cantor at 18 and was ordained a rabbi at 25 before resigning to become a comedian. Known for his delivery and voice as well as his use of innuendo and pun, his often culturally grounded humor was described as irreverent and sometimes politically incorrect. His 1988 special Jackie Mason on Broadway won another Emmy Award, and his 1991 voice-over of Rabbi Hyman Krustofski in The Simpsons episode 'Like Father, Like Clown' won him a third Emmy Award.
