		Born on 8 September 1922 in Yonkers, New York, Caesar later claimed that it was while listening to the immigrant labourers who frequented his father's restaurant that he developed his great skill of imitating vocal inflections, dialects and the cadences of foreign languages.

		Of Sid's leading ladies, Imogene Coca (1949-54) played her tiny stature cunningly against Sid's bulk; she was a superb pantomimist whose deft mugging surely served as the model for Carol Burnett.
		Sid is the clown Gallipacci, Nanette his duplicitous beloved Rosa; at the end he sings "Yellow Rosa Texas." The highlight is Sid's Italianate aria, to "Just One of Those Things," as he applies a tear to his right cheek with a mascara pencil.
		Caesar thus became the first in a long line of skitcom geniuses (Dan Aykroyd, Martin Short, Dana Carvey, Phil Hartman) whose short-form talents were wasted in indifferent films.

		The Sid Caesar Collection is a treasure trove of sketches, representative of the "knowledge, technique, and taste" of the show's creators: domestic sketches ("Nan Hires a Maid," "The White Rug"), spoofs ("Bullet Over Broadway," "German U Boat 749"), and pantomime ("Grieg Piano Concerto," "Pantomime Cocktail Party").
		In "Nan Hires a Maid," the writers meticulously establish wife Nanette Fabray's frustration with husband Sid's sloppiness, so when Sid comes home from work, we anxiously await to see him carelessly discard his clothes around the room, and for dutiful Nanette to explode, which she does "just so." Anything could happen on live television.
