  Jack Benny Biography
A minor vaudeville star, Benny became an enormously successful national figure with The Jack Benny Program, a weekly radio show which ran from 1932 to 1955, and was consistantly among the most highly-rated programs during most of that run.
Benny's program centered around the character of "Jack Benny," a fictional version of Benny who was a successful comedian and who also displayed a virtual encyclopedia of human failings: the Benny character was cheap, petty and vain, and the program introduced a stable of colorful characters who made Benny their foil.
Benny was also notable for employing a small group of writers, most of whom stayed with him for many years, in contrast to other radio or television comedians, such as Bob Hope, who would change writers frequently.

Jack Benny is one of America's most venerated entertainers of the twentieth century.
Benny realized early on that "if you want the laughs you have to put something in a ridiculous light, even yourself." Benny was not a gifted clown or a sparkling wit, so he and his writers crafted a well-rounded persona with the weaknesses and imperfections of his audience.
Among his notable movie vehicles, Benny appeared as a vain actor in Ernst Lubitsch's classic, To Be or Not to Be (1942); a confirmed city-dweller in George Washington Slept Here (1942); and an avenging angel in Raoul Walsh's comedy, The Horn Blows at Midnight (1945).
