Comedy legend and 'Seinfeld' icon Jerry Stiller has died at 92. JerryStiller RIP FrankCostanza
Jerry Stiller was a classically trained actor who was active on Broadway in a number of productions in the 1970s and 1980s, but comedy quickly became the backbone of his career. He met wife Anne Meara in 1953, and the duo began performing together in 1959 with the Compass Players, the improv group that eventually evolved into the famous Second City.
If that dynamic sounds familiar, it’s probably because it was echoed on some level by the role that would eventually bring Stiller worldwide fame, as George Costanza’s father Frank on. There, Stiller played a cantankerous, highly eccentric Korean War veteran who was responsible for the bulk of George’s various neuroses, with a bickering wife to match, played by actress Estelle Harris.
