‎Zero Mostel's Book of Villains‎

‎Garden City New York: Doubleday and Company 1976. First edition. First edition stated. Presumed first printing. Trade paperback. Good. Cover has some wear creases and soiling. Gotfryd Alex Photographer. 94 p. : photos.; 26 cm.

Included in this remarkable roster are: Benedict Arnold Attila the Hun Lady Macbeth Alexander Graham Bell Bluebeard Al Capone Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Salome the Loch Ness Monster the Marquis de Sade Adam Eve and the Serpent and twenty-nine others. From WIkipedia: "Samuel Joel "Zero" Mostel February 28 1915 September 8 1977 was an American actor and comedian of stage and screen best known for his portrayal of comic characters such as Tevye on stage in Fiddler on the Roof Pseudolus on stage and on screen in A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum and Max Bialystock in the original film version of The Producers. Mostel was a student of Don Richardson using an acting technique based on muscle memory. He was blacklisted during the 1950s and his testimony before the House Committee on Un-American Activities was well-publicized. He was a Tony Award and Obie Award winner. Mostel was born to Israel Mostel an Eastern European Jew and Cina "Celia" Druchs also from a Jewish family who was born in Poland and raised in Vienna. The two immigrated to the United States separately: Israel in 1898 and Cina in 1908 where they met and married. Israel already had four children from his first wife; he had four more children with Cina. Samuel later known as Zero was Israel's seventh child. The name "Zero" was created by press agent Ivan Black when Mostel began his career as a nightclub comic. The name was created at the behest of Barney Josephson proprietor of the Caf� Society nightclub who felt that "Sam Mostel" was not appropriate for a comic. Initially living in the Brownsville section of Brooklyn the family moved to Moodus Connecticut where they bought a farm. The family's income in those days came from a winery and a slaughterhouse. The farm did not do well. When according to Zero an unyielding bank president with fierce mustache and long whip foreclosed the mortgage on the farm the ten Mostels trekked back to New York and settled on the Lower East Side of Manhattan where the boy attended public school his character was shaped and his father was employed as a wine chemist. While not at poverty level the family had to struggle financially. As a child Mostel was described by his family as outgoing and lively and with a developed sense of humor. He showed an intelligence and perception that convinced his father he had the makings of a rabbi; however Mostel preferred painting and drawing a passion he was to retain for life. According to Roger Butterfield his mother made a practice of dressing the boy in a velvet suit and sending him to the Metropolitan Museum of Art to copy masterpieces. Zero had a favorite painting John White Alexander's Study for Woman in Black and Green which he copied every day to the delight of the gallery crowds. One afternoon while a crowd was watching over his velvet-clad shoulder he solemnly copied the whole painting upside down delighting his audience. Already at a young age he developed the duality of character that baffled critics years later: when alone he was studious and quiet but when observed he felt he had to be the center of attention which he invariably did through use of humor. The fact that at home he spoke English Yiddish Italian and German helped him reach out to audiences of many ethnicities in New York. He attended Public School 188 where he had been an A student. He also received professional training as a painter through The Educational Alliance. He completed his high school education at Seward Park High where his yearbook noted: "A future Rembrandt or perhaps a comedian ". Mostel attended the City College of New York a public college that allowed many poor students to pursue higher education. He later claimed that he was on the swimming team and the Reserve Officers Training. Doubleday and Company paperback‎
