Don Rickles was born in New York City.  As a teenager, he performed in high school plays and at neighborhood dances before starting to work in small nightclubs.
His "insult" style just happened.  Two years after his discharge from the U.S. Navy in 1946, he was working in nightclubs.  Never a great joke teller in the traditional sense, Rickles suddenly found himself talking directly to the audience and throwing "off the cuff" lines at them.  The laughs came and the rest, as they say, is history.
Rickles is also well known for his many charitable involvements.  Among his proudest moments was the dedication on February 7, 1982 of the Barbara and Don Rickles Gymnasium at Sinai Temple in West Los Angeles, California.  The gymnasium was built with funds raised by Rickles and many of his star friends during a special performance at the Ahmanson Theater in the Los Angeles Music Center.
Rickles and his wife Barbara live in the Los Angeles area.  They have a daughter Mindy, a son Lawrence, and two grandchildren. He will be at Snoqualmie Casino on Thursday, March 1st at 7PM!
