Jerry Lewis
Jerry Lewis was an iconic American comedian, actor, and filmmaker who rose to fame in the 1950s and 1960s. Known for his slapstick humor and unique comedic style, he became a beloved figure in entertainment. Lewis was also recognized for his philanthropic efforts, particularly in raising funds for muscular dystrophy research through his telethons. His film career included notable works such as 'The Nutty Professor' and 'The Bellboy.'
