Jerry Lewis dies at 91
LOS ANGELES (AP)
— Jerry Lewis epitomized
what it meant to be a
survivor in Hollywood.
Through
ups
and
downs
in
popularity,
health troubles and weight
fl uctuations and the sorts
of seismic shifts that take
place over decades in the
entertainment
industry,
Lewis always fi gured out
a way to battle back, to
reinvent himself, to stay
relevant. It’s what enduring
stars know how to do
instinctively; perhaps it’s
that very drive that makes
them stars in the fi rst place.
Through it all, Lewis
remained the consummate
showman, and his distinc-
tive comic legacy surely
will continue to survive
for decades to come.
The manic, rubber-faced
performer who jumped
and hollered to fame in a
stage, radio, TV and fi lm
partnership with Dean
Martin, settled to become
a self-conscious auteur in
movies he wrote, produced
and directed, and found
new fame as the tireless,
teary host of the annual
muscular dystrophy tele-
thons, died Sunday at home
in Las Vegas surrounded by
family. He was 91.
Lewis, who had battled
the lung disease pulmonary
fi brosis, heart issues, a
debilitating back problem
and addiction to pain
killers, died of natural
causes, according to his
publicist.
His career spanned the
history of show business in
the 20th century, beginning
in his parents’ vaudeville
act at the age of 5. He was
just 20 when his pairing
with Martin made them

ARRESTS, CITATIONS
international stars. After
their cold parting in 1956,
Lewis made such favorites
as “The Bellboy” and
“The Nutty Professor,”
was featured in Martin
Scorsese’s “The King of
Comedy” and appeared as
himself in Billy Crystal’s
“Mr. Saturday Night.” In
the 1990s, he scored a stage
comeback as the devil in
the Broadway revival of
“Damn Yankees.”
In his 80s, he was
still traveling the world,
planning to remake some
of his earlier movies and
working on a stage version
of “The Nutty Professor.”
He was so active he
would sometimes forget
the basics, like eating, his
associates would recall.
In 2012, Lewis missed an
awards ceremony thrown
by his beloved Friars Club
because his blood sugar
dropped from lack of food
and he had to spend the
night in the hospital.
In an interview with
The Associated Press from
2016, Lewis, at 90 and
promoting the fi lm “Max
Rose,” said he still woke
up every day at 4:30 or 5 in
the morning to write, and
he had a handful of standup
shows on the schedule.
