Lenny Bruce

About the artist

Lenny Bruce (October 13, 1925 – August 3, 1966), born Leonard Alfred Schneider in Mineola, New York, was an extremely influential and controversial American stand-up comedian, writer, social critic and satirist of the 1950s and 1960s, whose comedy revolved heavily around the social stigmas and taboos of the era in which he lived. His 1964 conviction in an obscenity trial was followed by a posthumous pardon, the first in New York state history.
