Jerry
Seinfeld’s unique brand of "observational humor" has made him one of the
most popular and most imitated comedians in America. Born in Brooklyn,
Seinfeld began hitting the club circuit the night he graduated from Queens
College; he performed stand-up for free at times just to perfect his act.
His determination paid off when he became a regular guest on “Late Night
With David Letterman” and on “The Tonight Show.” Network and cable specials
followed, and, in 1990, he was given the creative outlet of a lifetime—his
own network sitcom. With his partner, Larry David, Seinfeld created a show
about "nothing," devoting entire half hours to everything from waiting
for a table in a Chinese restaurant to looking for a lost car in a mall
garage. By 1993, his off-beat television series, “Seinfeld,” had become
a huge hit, both with the critics and with viewers. The show won the Emmy
for Best Comedy Series in 1993. The extraordinarily successful series remained
at the top of the ratings throughout its entire run, from 1989 until 1998.
Over his career, Seinfeld has received many awards, including the American
Comedy Award for Funniest Male Stand-Up Comic in 1988, the American Comedy
Award for Funniest Actor in a TV Series in 1992, the Golden Globe for Best
Actor in a TV Series Comedy or Musical in 1993, the Golden Globe for Best
TV Series Comedy or Musical in 1993, the Screen Actors Guild Award for
Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series in 1994, 1996
and 1997 and the People’s Choice Award for Favorite TV Comedy Series in
1998. Finally, Seinfeld recently authored a popular book entitled “Seinlanguage.”
