	GROUCHO MARX
		Groucho -- born Julius Henry Marx -- was the master of the ad-libbed insult and the hilarious non sequitur, usually delivered with rolling eyes and arched eyebrows.
		Groucho's father, Sam, was a struggling, immigrant tailor in New York City and their mother, the former Minnie Schoenberg, was the stage-struck sister of Al Shean, of the popular comedy team of Gallagher and Shean.
		Groucho started hosting "You Bet Your Life" on radio in 1947, and the show was popular more for Groucho's interviews with the contestants than for the actual question and answer portion of the show.

	Groucho Marx
		Groucho Marx began entertaining audiences in 1905 and continued nonstop for 56 years before fading from the public eye—and then he staged a comeback.
		For example, when asked to explain his chemistry with Margaret Dumont, who as a stuffy dowager was on the receiving end of many of his barbs, he explained, it was because she never understood what he was saying.
		Groucho’s one-liner is funny precisely because we all recognize that principles are basic—they’re the foundation of our character.

	Review \| Groucho Marx, Private Eye
		This is not the ensemble Groucho, indulging in rapid-fire word play and wild slapstick with his brothers as they lay waste to drawing rooms, racetracks, and cruise ships.
		Groucho fans will enjoy a chance to see their man come to life in a very plausible role (one which has the authorization of the late comedian's estate).

	Groucho Marx - Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
		Groucho Marx was a socialist philosopher who tried to promote the cause of the workers, whom he viewed as huddled masses who, despite controlling the means of production through their work, were mercilessly exploited by their bosses.
		Recognising the previously untapped power of Hollywood as a force for social disruption, Marx chose to promote his cause by making a series of movies about the struggle of the proletariat against the bourgeoisie.
		Meanwhile, Groucho himself plays the corrupt head of the college, and Zeppo plays his idle son, who is more interested in women than in his studies, and who retains his place only through his father's influence.

	TURNER CLASSIC MOVIES
		(Groucho was particularly close to his uncle.) Their first comedy routine was patterned on what were known as "school acts" popular in the early 1900s, with Groucho playing a German school teacher and Chico and Harpo his prize students (brothers Zeppo and Gummo were then also in the act).
		Although the restrictions of early sound technology hamstrung their theater antics a little, Groucho's verbal witticisms came across intact and were an instant hit (despite his habit of double-takes and pauses to allow the cinema audience time to laugh).
		Groucho once credited their chemistry largely to Dumont's total incomprehension about what he was saying and what was funny about his jokes.

	Review \| The Essential Groucho by Groucho Marx and Stefan Kanfer
		If, like me, you are fascinated and amused by Groucho, then these excerpts from the many aspects of his career will be both welcome and delightful.
		Nevertheless, Groucho's iconoclastic wit has certainly left a stamp on Western humor and certainly his style and image have passed into 20th-century mythology as much as Elvis Presley (who died the same week Groucho did), Marilyn Monroe, or Albert Einstein.
		Groucho isn't as well-known as a prose humorist as he is as a comic performer and it's a shame.
