I was always an observer, even as a child. I could be satisfied to sit in a car for 3 hours and just look at the street go by while my mother went shopping.
I began painting well before I started doing comedy. In fact, when I came out of the war in 1946, I enrolled in art school in Dayton, Ohio. I painted for three years, and then show business took hold.

My mother and father were very strange people. They tried to be funny which is always very sad to me.
I couldn't wait for success, so I went ahead without it.
