Actor, comedian and rabbi Jackie Mason passed away at the age of 93.
Was born Yacov Moshe Hakohen Maza. He was known for his 1986 one-man show The World According to Me! He won a Special Tony Award, an Outer Critics Circle Award, an Ace Award and Emmy Award and earned a Grammy nomination.
Known for his rapid-fire befuddled observations in a decades long stand up career died in New York. His longtime friend and collaborator Raoul Felder told CNN on Saturday night.
"He died peacefully with several close friends and family at his side," Felder said. Mason had been hospitalized for two weeks with difficulty breathing.
Although born in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, Jackie came of age in Brooklyn, New York with brief career turns as an amateur boxer and ordained rabbi before getting into the comedy scene. He was the master of the "Borscht Belt" style of standup, leaning heavily on his Jewish culture and expressions. In his later years, he would curate a vlog called "The Ultimate Jew" on his website.
Mason love attention from his fans and enjoyed the spotlight throughout his life.
"He would talk to anybody on the street, even when he was at the height of his fame," Felder said of his longtime friend.
He added that Mason's on-stage persona as a man whose wheels were constantly turning was no act.
"I would get phone calls that would start with, 'Let me ask you something.' and I knew he had a thought of a hypothetical lawsuit to right some terrible wrong," Felder said.
Mason had once held a longstanding feud with Ed Sullivan. He apparently gave the late night host the middle finger because he had to cut his set due to Lyndon B Johnson's presidential statement. The finger incident led to Sullivan banning him from the show and it did significant damage on Mason's career. They dubbed him as unreliable, volatile and obscene. He failed to get substantial TV work for nearly two decades.
Many fans also knew that Mason had a role on The Simpsons as Krusty the Clown's father Hyman Krustofsky, a orthodox Jewish rabbi who denounced the clown's antics in the earlier seasons of the longtime show. Mason's character was killed off in 2014.
Jackie leaves behind a wife Jyll Rosenfeld and daughter Sheba Mason, who is also a comedian.
Mason was considered a bigot towards Blacks and Palestinians. He called New York mayor David Dinkins "a fancy schvartze with a mustache." That was a Yiddish term for NIGGER. He also called former president Barack Obama the term which forced him eventually off The Simpsons.
Mason called for the total expulsion of Palestinians from Israel, the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and East Jerusalem (known as a Nakba).
