Of Lithuanian Jewish ancestry, he was the youngest of the five sons of Jennie (Gorovitz) and Solomon Horwitz. He suffered serious health problems and several more strokes until his death in 1952 at age 48.Ĭurly Howard was born Jerome Lester Horwitz in the Bensonhurst section of the Brooklyn borough of New York City, on October 22, 1903. Howard had to leave the Three Stooges act in May 1946 when a massive stroke ended his show business career. Curly's unique version of "woo-woo-woo" was firmly established by the time of the Stooges' second Columbia film, Punch Drunks (1934). An untrained actor, Curly borrowed (and significantly exaggerated) the "woo woo" from "nervous" comedian Hugh Herbert. He was well known for his high-pitched voice and vocal expressions ("nyuk-nyuk-nyuk!", "woo-woo-woo!", "soitenly!", "I'm a victim of soikemstance", and barking like a dog), as well as his physical comedy (e.g., falling on the ground and pivoting on his shoulder as he "walked" in circular motion), improvisations, and athleticism. Curly Howard was generally considered the most popular and recognizable of the Stooges. In early shorts, he was billed as Curley. He was best known as a member of the American comedy team the Three Stooges, which also featured his elder brothers Moe and Shemp Howard and actor Larry Fine. ![]() ![]() Jerome Lester Horwitz ( Hebrew: יהודה לייב בר שלמה נתן הלוי, romanized: Yehudah Leib bar Shlomo Natan HaLevi Octo– January 18, 1952), better known by his stage name Curly Howard, was an American comedian and actor. ![]()
