The world lost a comedy icon this week with the passing of Jerry Stiller. Primarily known for his portrayals of Frank Costanza on Seinfeld and Arthur Spooner on The King of Queens, Stiller also made frequent cameo appearances on a number of other TV shows and movies, such as Zoolander and Heavyweights.
Stiller had an extensive comedy career that went all the way back to the 1950s when he performed improv with The Compass Players, an ensemble whose members ultimately went on to form the famed Second City in Chicago.
