Comedian. He was working as a salesman within the fabric industry of New York City when he was encouraged to go into stand up comedy. He was the unsurpassed story teller of comedy and a favorite guest for many years on the Tonight Show Featuring Johnny Carson and The Ed Sullivan Show. Myron was also a regular entertainer in Las Vegas, nightclubs and the "Borscht Belt."
