Jack Lemmon
Jack Lemmon is remembered for his iconic comedic roles in films such as The Apartment, The Odd Couple, and Some Like It Hot, among others. It was his great fortune that he was born into a well-off family, and although his childhood was riddled with ailments, he was able to receive his formal education from top schools and even earned his degree at Harvard University. As a professional, he initially became an actor for Broadway and radio productions. Ever since, he was cast in over sixty films. He is known for his exceptional comedic timing and uncanny wit, which earned the comedian eight Academy Award nominations and winning two of them.
Jack lived a full life of 76 years, and in true comedian fashion, his epitaph is as witty as it can get. It plainly reads, “Jack Lemon in,” and nothing but the ground below it.
