Groucho Marx, American comedian and actor (October 2, 1890 - August 19, 1977) was born Julius Henry Marx in a room above a butcher's shop on East 78th Street, "Between Lexington & 3rd" in Manhattan, New York. He was known as a master of quick wit and is widely considered one of the best comedians of the modern era. He made 13 feature films with his siblings the Marx Brothers (Harpo Marx and Chico Marx), of whom he was the third-born. He also had a successful solo career, most notably as the host of the radio and television game show You Bet Your Life. His distinctive appearance, carried over from his days in vaudeville, included quirks such as an exaggerated stooped posture, glasses, cigar, and a thick greasepaint mustache and eyebrows. These exaggerated features resulted in the creation of one of the world' most ubiquitous and recognizable novelty disguises, known as Groucho glasses: a one-piece mask consisting of horn-rimmed glasses, large plastic nose, bushy eyebrows and mustache. Groucho Marx died of pneumonia at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center at the age of 86. Media coverage of Groucho's death and legacy was somewhat overshadowed by the sudden death of Elvis Presley three days previously. Marx was cremated and the ashes are interred in the Eden Memorial Park Cemetery in Los Angeles.
