In this episode, I spoke with author Burt Kearns about his book "Shemp! The Biography of The Three Stooges Shemp Howard, The Face of Film Comedy".  Shemp Howard not only had one of the most distinctive faces of the twentieth century, but was also one of its most accomplished, influential comic actors and showbiz personalities. Along with his brother Moe and comedy violinist Larry Fine, Shemp was an original member of the comedy team that became known as the Three Stooges before he quit and set off on his own in 1932.
