Jackie Gleason born John Herbert Gleason (February 26, 1916 – June 24, 1987) was an American comedian, actor and musician. He was known for his brash visual and verbal comedy style, exemplified by his character Ralph Kramden in The Honeymooners. Among his notable film roles were Minnesota Fats in the 1961 drama The Hustler (starring Paul Newman) and Buford T. Justice in the Smokey and the Bandit series. Gleason was born at 364 Chauncey Street in the Bushwick section of Brooklyn.[2] He grew up nearby, at 328 Chauncey (an address he later used for Ralph and Alice Kramden on The Honeymooners).[3] Originally named Herbert Walton Gleason Jr., he was baptized John Herbert Gleason.[4] His parents were Mae "Maisie" (née Kelly), a subway change-booth attendant and Herbert Walton "Herb" Gleason, an insurance auditor.[5][6][7] His mother was from Farranree, Cork,[8] Ireland, and his father was Irish-American.[8] Gleason was one of their two children—his brother Clemence died of spinal meningitis at age 14, and his father abandoned the family.[8] He remembered his father as having "beautiful handwriting", as Herbert Gleason often worked at the family's kitchen table writing policies in the evenings. The night before his disappearance, Gleason's father disposed of any family photos he was pictured in; just after noon on December 15, 1925 he collected his hat, coat and paycheck, leaving the insurance company and his family permanently. When it was evident he was not coming back, Mae went to work for the Brooklyn–Manhattan Transit Corporation (BMT).[9] After his father left, young Gleason began hanging around on the streets with a local gang and hustling pool.[9] He attended elementary school at P.S. 73 in Brooklyn and attended (but did not graduate from) John Adams High School in Queens and Bushwick High School in Brooklyn. Gleason became interested in performing after being part of a class play; when he left school, he got a job as master of ceremonies at a theater which paid $4 per night. Other jobs he held included working in a pool hall, as a stunt diver and a carnival barker.[10][9] Gleason and his friends made the rounds of the local theaters; he put an act together with one of his friends, and the pair performed on amateur night at the Halsey Theater (where Gleason replaced his friend, Sammy Birch, as master of ceremonies). He was also offered the same work two nights a week at the Folly Theater.[9] After his father's disappearance, Gleason was raised by his mother. When she died in 1935, Gleason was 19,[4] had nowhere to go and less than 40 cents to his name. The family of his first girlfriend, Julie Dennehy, offered to take him in; Gleason, however, was headstrong and insisted he was going into the heart of the city.[9] His friend, Sammy Birch, made room for him in the hotel room he shared with another comedian. Birch also told him of a one-week job in Reading, Pennsylvania that would pay $19, more money than Gleason could imagine. The booking agent advanced him bus fare for the trip against his salary. This was Gleason's first job as a professional comedian, and he had regular work in a number of small clubs after that.[11] Gleason worked his way up to a job at New York's Club 18, where insulting its patrons was the order of the day. Skater Sonja Henie was greeted by Gleason, who handed her an ice cube and said, "Okay, now do something."[12] It was here that Jack Warner first saw Gleason, signing him to a film contract for $250 per week.[9] By age 24 Gleason was appearing in movies: first for Warner Brothers (as Jackie C. Gleason) in such films as Navy Blues (1941) with Ann Sheridan and Martha Raye and All Through the Night (1941) with Humphrey Bogart, for Columbia Pictures for the B military comedy Tramp, Tramp, Tramp (1942) and finally for Twentieth Century-Fox, where Gleason played Glenn Miller Orchestra bassist Ben Beck in Orchestra Wives (1942). He also had a small part as a soda shop clerk in Larceny, Inc. (1942) with Edward G. Robinson, and a modest part as a commissioner in the 1942 Betty Grable-Harry James musical Springtime in the Rockies. Gleason did not make a strong impression on Hollywood at first; at that time, however, he developed a nightclub act which included comedy and music. At the end of 1942, Gleason and Lew Parker led a large cast of entertainers in the road-show production of Olsen and Johnson's New 1943 Hellzapoppin.[13][14][15] He also became known for hosting all-night parties in his hotel suite; the hotel soundproofed his suite out of consideration for its other guests.[12] "Anyone who knew Jackie Gleason in the 1940s," wrote CBS historian Robert Metz, "would tell you The Fat Man would never make it. His pals at Lindy's watched him spend money as fast as he soaked up the booze." Gleason's first significant recognition as an entertainer finally came on Broadway when he appeared in the hit musical Follow the Girls (1944). While working in films in California, Gleason also worked at former boxer Maxie Rosenbloom's nightclub (Slapsy Maxie's, on Wilshire Boulevard).[9][16][17] Gleason's big break occurred in 1949, when he landed the role of blunt (but softhearted) aircraft worker Chester A. Riley for the first television version of the radio comedy The Life of Riley (William Bendix originated the role on radio, but was unable to accept the television role at first because of film commitments). The show received modest ratings (despite positive reviews) but was cancelled after one year, with Bendix reprising the role in 1953 for a five-year series.[18] The Life of Riley became a television hit for Bendix during the mid to late 1950s.[12] But long before this, Gleason's nightclub act had received attention from New York City's inner circle and the fledgling DuMont Television Network. He was working at Slapsy Maxie's when he was hired [9] to host DuMont's Cavalcade of Stars variety hour in 1950. The program initially had rotating hosts; the offer first made to Gleason was for two weeks at $750 per week. When he said he did not consider that worth the train trip to New York, the offer was extended to four weeks. Gleason then returned to New York.[9] He framed the show with splashy dance numbers, developed sketch characters he would refine over the next decade, and became enough of a presence that CBS wooed (and won) him over to its network in 1952. Renamed The Jackie Gleason Show, it became the country's second-highest-rated television show during the 1954–1955 season.[19] Gleason amplified the show with even splashier opening dance numbers, inspired by Busby Berkeley screen dance routines and featuring the precision-choreographed June Taylor Dancers. Following the dance performance, he would do an opening monologue. Then, accompanied by "a little travelin' music" ("That's a Plenty", a Dixieland classic from 1914), he would shuffle toward the wings, clapping his hands inversely and shouting, "And awaaay we go!" The phrase became one of his trademarks, along with "How sweet it is!" (which was used in reaction to almost anything).[19] Theona Bryant, a former Powers Girl, became Gleason's "And awaaay we go," girl.
