Comedian Richard Lewis announced his Parkinson's disease diagnosis earlier this week and retirement from stand-up. Here's a look back at the 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' star's 50-year career.
Lewis and Curtis played co-workers at a Chicago magazine with a mutual attraction who try to keep things professional. On Lewis’ website, he noted that the series is"closest to his heart."
According to a 2014 interview with Lewis, the two were actually born at the same hospital three days apart. When asked why he didn’t like David at the time, Lewis put it bluntly,"He was a p---k," adding,"He was an obnoxious, gangly f---ing a--hole like I was" and they used to physically fight each other.
Since then, he’s been a beloved part of the show and credits it with a late career boost and offering breaks from touring."The show's been on since 2000, so when you think of that, say some guy's in medical school, he's 25, he was only 5 when the show started," Lewis told GQ in 2021."So, there's been a lot of generations."
