Description
Allan Sherman was a trailblazing comedian who brought Jewish humor to the American mainstream in 1963. His irreverent parodies of classic songs captured the nation's attention, earning him widespread acclaim and commercial success. This biography, written with exclusive access to Sherman's estate, offers a comprehensive and dramatic portrait of his life and career. Mark Cohen sheds new light on the man behind the manic stage presence, revealing a complex and creative artist who sold three million albums in just twelve months, yet struggled to achieve lasting recognition.
