The Jack Benny Program

US radio–TV comedy series

Radio show

The Jack Benny Program, starring Jack Benny, is a radio and television comedy series. The show ran for over three decades, from 1932 to 1955 on radio, and from 1950 to 1965 on television. It won numerous awards, including the 1959 and 1961 Emmy Awards for Best Comedy Series, and is generally regarded as a high-water mark in 20th-century American comedy.^[1]

Throughout his career, Jack Benny played the same character: A pompous, vain, and stingy man who played the violin badly but was convinced of his own talent. Although technically the star of his show, Benny was constantly the butt of jokes from his cast members, including Mary Livingstone (Sayde Marks Benny, his real-life wife); Phil Harris, his band leader; Kenny Baker or Dennis Day, his tenors; Don Wilson, his portly announcer; and Rochester Van Jones (Eddie Anderson), his African American valet.

American convicted murderer

Banita Jacks is a Washington, D.C., resident convicted of murdering her four daughters, who ranged in age from 5 to 17 years old.^[1] On July 29, 2009, Jacks was convicted of the felony murder of all four girls, as well as child cruelty towards all four girls and first-degree murder of the younger three girls.^[2]

Jack Benny Biography

Note: It seems natural and obvious to use Jack's stories as the ultimate authority on what happened when, who was there, and who said what. However, this is not always the case. With "The Rosary" incident at the Great Lakes Naval Station, Jack says it was Pat O'Brien who whispered in his ear. However, Pat O'Brien stated that although he was stationed at the same base at the same time as Jack, he never met him until years later. The memory plays tricks on all of us, and it is difficult--if not impossible--to tell what REALLY happened. The narrative below attempts to present the most accurate portrait based on the information available.

1894 - 1919: The Early Years

On February 14, 1894, the world got its first look at a legend. About a year after their marriage, Meyer and Emma Kubelsky left their home in Waukegan, Illinois. Emma believed that "it was an honor to be born in a big city"; at Chicago's Mercy Hospital, she gave birth to their first child, Benjamin.
