Eddie Murphy

Eddie was born in Brooklyn, New York on April 3rd, 1961. He was always entertaining his friends and family with his gift for voices and characterization. The son of Brooklyn policeman who died when he was eight, comedy superstar Eddie Murphy was raised in the comfortable middle-class community of Hempstead by his mother and stepfather. By the age of 15, he was doing standup gigs at 25 dollars to 50 dollars a pop, and within a few years he was headlining on the comedy-club circuit.

Murphy was 19 when he was hired as one of the backup performers on the NBC comedy weekly Saturday Night Live. His unique blend of youthful arrogance, sharkish good cheer, underlying rage, and street-smart versatility transformed the comedian into SNL's prime attraction, and soon the country was reverberating with imitations of choice Murphy characterizations
