Jack Benny was born in Chicago, Illinois, on February 14th, 1894. While in school, Benny got a job as a violin player in the early 1900s with the Barrison Theater, the most popular form of show business that made people laugh in the United States.      During World War I, Benny joined the navy and continued using his violin to perform for sailors. In one show, he was loved more for his funny jokes than his violin skills. That experience made him believe that his future job was as a comedian, not a musician.      On his shows, Jack Benny often spoke of his appearance, especially his baby blue eyes. He also allowed other actors to make fun of him during the performances. He was known as a comedian with great timing. He seemed to know the perfect time to tell a joke and when to remain silent. The way he looked at other actors and his use of body movements were world famous. He was also skilled at using his violin to make people laugh.      Jack Benny entered the new medium of television in 1950. Five years later, he dropped his radio program to spend more time developing his television show. At first, his appearances on television were rare. By 1960, the Benny Show had become a weekly television program. It continued until 1965. Benny also appeared in about twenty films during his lifetime.      Jack Benny received many awards during his lifetime. The publication of Motion Picture Daily voted him the country’s best radio comedian four times. In 1957, he won a special award from the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences for the best continuing performance. Perhaps the honor that pleased him most was that his hometown of Waukegan named a school after him. This was a special honor for a man who had never finished high school.
