As a member of the Marx Brothers, Julius a.k.a. Groucho Marx, enjoyed a sensational career on Broadway and in Hollywood with such comedy classics as Animal Crackers, Duck Soup, and A Night at the Opera. His solo career included work as a film actor, television game show emcee and author of Groucho & Me, his autobiography. He died in 1977.
"...these letters are good reading, for out of the book Groucho
emerges, eyebrows bounding, eyes rolling, cigar jauntily clamped
between his teeth, the wisecracks coming a mile a minute. Even
Calvin Coolidge might have smiled."
-- Book Week
"It is hard to keep from reading bits of this aloud to friends and
relations. Groucho in letters is just as devastatingly witty as he
was in the movies, to say nothing of other media."
-- Publishers Weekly
"Written...with the impudence, irreverence and general lunacy that
made Groucho the immortal wise guy of the American screen."
-- Newsweek
