The inscription reads To Kathie Love Milton Berle 1987. Some page discoloration noted. This autobiography of Milton Berle's fifty years in the Friars Club features one-lines, ad libs, and risque roasts of America's past and present celebrities from the fields of entertainment, sports, politics and crime. Milton Berle (born Mendel Berlinger; July 12, 1908 - March 27, 2002) was an American actor and comedian. His career spanned over eight decades, first in silent films and on stage as a child actor, then in radio, movies and television. As the host of NBC's Texaco Star Theatre (1948-1953), he was the first major American television star and was known to viewers as "Uncle Miltie" and "Mr. Television" during the Golden Age of Television. He was honored with two stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for his work in both radio and TV. In Las Vegas, Berle played to packed showrooms at Caesars Palace, the Sands, the Desert Inn, and other casinos. Berle appeared at the El Rancho, the first Las Vegas Strip full service resort, starting in the late 1940s. In addition to club appearances, Berle performed on Broadway in Herb Gardner's The Goodbye People in 1968. He became a commercial spokesman for the Lum's restaurant chain. He appeared in films, including Always Leave Them Laughing (released in 1949) with Virginia Mayo and Bert Lahr; Let's Make Love with Marilyn Monroe and Yves Montand; It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World; The Oscar; Who's Minding the Mint?; Lepke; Woody Allen's Broadway Danny Rose; and Driving Me Crazy. Derived from a Kirkus review: Uncle Miltie gives a celebrity-studded history of the Friars Club and of his love affair with its members. The club was organized about 1907 by some press agents in Manhattan. The agents had some actor friends whom they also invited--and soon the actors had taken over. Now it's largely an actors club renowned for its irreverent humorists and their daily lunches, dinners, and celebrity roasts. Berle, an abbot (or president) of the Friars, has been a lynchpin among kingpins for the club's functions, often tempting members to attend special roasts by offering them boxes of his favorite Havanas. It was in 1920, when Berle was 16, that he was first taken to the Friars Club by Eddie Cantor: "You won't be such a wise guy big mouth when the men at the club cut you down to size." Berle was impressed by the assembled wits but held his own. Then in 1945, Al Jolson, Bing Crosby and Bob Hope decided to open a Hollywood branch of the Friars and a second club arose. Among the famed that Berle gives special attention to in his pages are Phyllis Diller, Mae West, Caruso, Will Rogers, Sid Caesar, George Bums, Sid Silvers, Joe E. Lewis, Jolson, and Welles. His jokes come off every time. Bill Hayward (jacket photographs) (illustratore). Signed.…
