"When Benny Kubelsky was born, who in their wildest dreams would imagine that, eighty years later, at the event of his passing, every television program, every radio show would stop,...and that every magazine and newspaper would headline it on their front pages?" For Bob Hope, as for millions of Americans, the story of the tenth-grade dropout from Waukegan, Illinois, who left home to play the violin in a vaudeville act was little short of a miracle. When Benny Kubelsky changed his name, he could have not known it would become one the most famous in entertainment history--Jack Benny.
