Born: February 28, 1915 Died: September 8, 1977 If musical comedy is larger than life, only one performer was larger than musical comedy. The son of an itinerant rabbi, Samuel Joel Mostel was born in Brownsville, the same poor Brooklyn neighborhood Phil Silvers hailed from, in 1915. His dream was to be a painter, and he worked for the WPA as an artist and museum tour guide. During his museum tours, he would blast off into bizarre improvisations, pretending to be Picasso or a coffee percolator. This led to a successful career as a nightclub comedian and to a couple of early appearances in the 1940s on Broadway in revues and as Peachum in Duke Ellington's "Beggar's Holiday." Mostel's left-wing sympathies caused him great travails during the blacklisting of the 1950s, scotching a blossoming Hollywood career as a character actor and funnyman. He returned to Broadway in triumph in 1961, transforming into a pachyderm before the audience's very eyes in the absurdist drama, "Rhinoceros," for which he won his first Tony. Producer Harold Prince thought Mostel's desperate humanity would be ideal for the freedom-craving slave in "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum," and Mostel's ability to push the complicated farce to the final curtain made it into a hit. He won a second Tony, making him the first performer to win in both musical and dramatic categories.

ZERO MOSTEL The First Web Page Devoted To This Remarkable Legend If there is one adjective that can sum up Zero Mostel, it is awesome. Awesome in his dominant presence that impresses one even in still photographs, the presence of a larger-than-life star.  Awesome in the artful way he combined ferocious bombast and winsome delicacy in his performances.  Awesome in that he tackled both farcical slapstick and serious drama with equal vigor and conviction.  Awesome in that he could accomplish the impossible, such as metamorphosing into a beast without makeup or trickery.  Awesome in that he won three Tonys for three Broadway shows in a row.  And especially awesome in that he not only recovered from the McCarthy-era blacklist and a crippling accident, but that he soared to greater heights than ever. It is a shame that Zero's stage triumphs in shows like  A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum and  Fiddler on the Roof are now fading memories of those lucky enough to witness them.  Fortunately, his best work has been preserved on film, television, and records for posterity, giving those who never saw him on stage the opportunity to appreciate his remarkable talent. Currently under construction, this web page will celebrate Mostel's achievements, as well as his heroism during the blacklist.  I hope that this web page will help perpetuate Mostel's memory.
