Larry Fine
Larry Fine was born Louis Fienberg on October 5, 1902 on the
south side of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. His father, Joseph
Fienberg, and mother Fanny Lieberman, owned a watch repair and
jewelry shop. Larry had two brothers, Morris, a younger brother
Phillip who died prematurely, and a sister, Lila, who became a
school teacher.
As a child, Larry's left arm was badly burned from acid used by
his father in the jewelry business. Larry required immediate
attention, and a skin graft was done on his arm. Larry's doctors
recommended that he be given violin lessons as a form of therapy.
Playing the violin was supposed to strengthen his damaged arm
muscles. Larry's skill as a violinist became so impressive that
eventually he began to play professionally. Larry played in local
theater amateur nights usually taking top prize
Interestingly enough, along with being a violin player he also was
a boxer. Larry earned money as a light weight fighter. Later on he
would develop an act in which he would do a Russian dance while
playing the violin. It was this act that caught the attention of
Ted Healy. After Shemp decided to leave Ted Healy's act, Moe
suggested that perhaps Larry could replace Shemp. The trio, Moe,
Larry, and Shemp first appeared on Broadway in A Night in Venice.
Larry also appeared in The Stooges first full length motion
picture, "Soup to Nuts," in 1930 for 20th Century Fox. Of course,
Larry went on with Moe and Curly to form The Three Stooges, who
appeared in the Columbia shorts beginning in 1934.
Larry and his wife, Mable, lived in hotels, first in the President
Hotel in Atlantic City, where his daughter Phyllis was raised, then
the Knickerbocker Hotel in Hollywood. Later Larry bought an old
Mediterranean style house in the Los Feliz area of Los Angeles.
Larry had two children. His son, Johnny died in a tragic automobile
accident on November 17, 1961 at age 24. Larry also had a daughter,
Phyllis. Larry's wife, Mabel, died on May 30, 1967. Larry has five
grandchildren, Christy Lynn Clark, John Fine, Jr., Phyllis Miller,
Kris Cutler, and Eric Lamond.
After 1958, Larry, Moe, and Curly Joe performed before live
audiences all across the country, appeared in six full length
motion pictures, appeared on numerous television shows, and
performed in other productions until Larry Fine suffered a stroke
during the filming of "Kook's Tour" in 1970. After his stroke Larry
never performed again. Larry Fine passed away on January 24,
1975.
The cache is a camo painted
recycled 18 oz. PB jar with plenty of room for trackables and trade
items.
