Jerry Lewis

JERRY LEWIS and Dean Martin sandwiched sixteen money-making
films in between nightclub engagements, recording sessions,
radio shows, and television bookings during their ten-year
partnership. Over the following years Lewis remained in the
spotlight as the groundbreaking creator and star of a
series of hugely successful movie comedies, and scored
triumphs in stage appearances in Europe, where he has been
hailed as one of the greatest director-comedians of the
twentieth century. He was nominated for the Nobel Peace
Prize, and has received numerous other honors for his
tireless efforts in the fight against the fourty
neuromuscular diseases.
