George Carl – Physical Comedian

 

When I was living in Tribeca during the 1970’s I had a nice sized loft that doubled as my studio.

Once in a while I had a guest over and I requested that we do a ‘studio session’ with them.

One of my most memorable times was with George Carl. He came to visit with Francis Brunn.

George didn’t have his own show hat with him so we borrowed Natalie Enterline’s hat for the shot.

For those of you who aren’t familiar with George Carl’s physical antics you should check out his videos.

There are many on You Tube.

The one I especially like was taken in his back yard in the 1950’s at the early part of his career.

His was a genius!
