Directed by Barry Avrich
Canada | 2013 | 80 minutes | Documentary/Comedy
Born in a strict Jewish household, David Steinberg abandoned his yeshiva studies to join Chicago's legendary Second City improv troupe, and never looked back. He appeared on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson more than 130 times (second only to Bob Hope), but his religious sermonettes were too hot for CBS, prompting the cancellation of The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour. Plentiful clips of Steinberg's priceless performances and TV directing credits (Seinfeld, Mad About You, Golden Girls and Curb Your Enthusiasm) are paired with backstage stories from Jerry Seinfeld, Larry David, Norm Macdonald, Jeff Garlin and others who illuminate Steinberg's place in the comedy pantheon, a satirist and provocateur who influenced and entertained generations.
