Joe E. Brown is still too undeservedly neglected; he`s truly one of the funniest, most talented, diverse and charming film comedians to have ever graced the screen--just looking at him makes me laugh. Therefore, I`ll watch anything with Joe E. Brown`s name on it.

Trivia

  • Playing Flute in `A Midsummer Night`s Dream` (1935) Brown ad-libbed "I won`t play any more" when thrown into a lake. It always got a good laugh, but it is said to be the only non-Shakespeare bit of dialogue in the film.
  • His comical face and satchel-sized mouth seemed to overshadow the fact that Brown was a remarkably gifted athlete and had an almost deceptively ripped physique, which he maintained throughout his entire life.
  • OH-18 in Holgate, Ohio, his birthplace, is renamed Joe E. Brown Ave.
  • In 1948, won a special Tony Award for the touring production of "Harvey," cited for "spreading theater to the country while the original performs in New York".
  • Bowling Green State University dedicated one of its three theaters to him (the one in which he appeared in "Harvey" in the 1950s) as The Joe E. Brown Theatre.
  • Biography in: "Who`s Who in Comedy", by Ronald L. Smith, pg. 68-69. New York: Facts on File, 1992. ISBN 0816023387
  • Comedian.
  • Interred at Forest Lawn (Glendale), Glendale, California, USA. Specific interment location: Sunrise Slope, just south of the Great Mausoleum.
