Brother Theodore is widely regarded as a pivotal figure in comedy, respected by artists like Eric Bogosian and Woody Allen. He’s appeared on major television shows, from Merv Griffin to David Letterman. His acclaimed Off-Broadway show was called "diabolical genius." In the late 1930s, Theodore was a wealthy German playboy whose life shattered when his family, fortune, and sense of self were destroyed as a Dachau concentration camp survivor. Humiliated and adrift in America, he sought to regain his former status. Haunted by his past and struggling as an immigrant, Theodore transformed his despair into a unique, dark humor, ultimately becoming one of America's most admired humorists and monologists.
