Born: June 17, 1951

Best remembered for his work on the long-running sketch comedy show Saturday_Night_Live between 1980 and 1984, comedian Joe Piscopo has also had a sporadic movie career. Heralding from Passaic, NJ, he started out in standup and also worked in regional and improvisational theater before joining the show. On SNL, Piscopo was famed for his dead-on parody of Frank_Sinatra and other celebrities ranging from Abraham Lincoln to Leonard_Nimoy to Barbra_Streisand. He made his feature-film debut (not counting an unbilled appearance in Dino_De_Laurentis' King_Kong) in Johnny_Dangerously (1984). Sandra Brennan, Rovi
