Author, SHEMP!: The Biography of The Three Stooges’ Shemp Howard, The Face of Film Comedy
This week, Ira spoke with Burt Kearns, author of SHEMP!: The Biography of The Three Stooges’ Shemp Howard, The Face of Film Comedy. In this slapstick episode of “Ira’s Everything Bagel,” Burt talks about why Shemp was put in a very thankless role in The Three Stooges; why he decided to write the book on Shemp; why what most of what we know about The Three Stooges isn’t true; how Moe and Shemp started out as a vaudeville act; how it became violent comedy; why Shemp was the star of the show; why Moe disparaged Shemp; how kids watching TV in the 60’s never took to Shemp; Shemp as a versatile actor; why he feels that Moe was responsible for Curly’s death and Shemp’s death; and the most surprising thing he found about Shemp while doing research.
Burt Kearns is an author, journalist, and “show business and pop culture savant” (Vanity Fair). His books include Lawrence Tierney: Hollywood’s Real-Life Tough Guy, The Show Won’t Go On and Marlon Brando: Hollywood Rebel. Burt has broken major stories as a television and print journalist. As an Emmy-winning television and motion picture producer, director, and writer, he’s written and produced dozens of nonfiction television series (“Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura” and “Kardashian: The Man Who Saved OJ Simpson”), documentaries (“Death of a Beatle” and “Bin Laden’s Escape”) and, with Academy Award winners Albert S. Ruddy and Gray Frederickson, the motion picture comedy, “Cloud 9,” starring Burt Reynolds. He lives in Pacific Palisades, California.
