Isaac Sidney Caesar Wiki Biography
Isaac Sidney Caesar was born on 8 September 1922, in Yonkers, New York City, USA, of Jewish descent. Sid was an actor and writer, best known for helping pioneer comedy through the television series “Your Show of Shows” and “Caesar’s Hour”, being active in the industry from 1946 to 2006. All of his efforts helped put his net worth to where it was prior to his passing.
How rich is Sid Caesar? As of late-2017, sources estimate a net worth that is at $10 million, mostly earned through success in comedy. He appeared in numerous films, including “Silent Movie” and “Grease”, and was nominated for 11 Emmy Awards during his career; all of these achievements ensured the position of his wealth.
Growing up, Sid was often at his parents’ restaurant, and there started to develop his comedy skill through mimicking the various clientele. He started creating sketches at the time, and also learned to play the saxophone. He attended Yonkers High School, and matriculated in 1939.
Caesar then left home to pursue a musical career – he moved to Manhattan and started working as a doorman of Capitol Theater. He then found work as a saxophonist in the Catskill Mountains, and during his time there he was mentored, and performed in comedy shows. In 1939, he enlisted in the US Coast Guard and also did shows during his service. He then joined the musicians’ union and started performing with various artists, with his net worth increasing due to the success of his comedy acts. He included comedy with his musical acts, which established his eventual path in comedy. After World War II, he moved to Hollywood and was cast in acting roles; he became a part of “The Guilt of Janet Ames” and performed in the Broadway revue entitled “Make Mine Manhattan”. In 1948, he would win a Donaldson Award.
Sid also found a lot of television work which would increase his net worth significantly. His first series was “Admiral Broadway Revue” which was highly successful, yet the sponsor could not keep up with the demand which led to the show’s end. In 1950, he would appear in the first episode of “Your Show of Shows” which featured various musical guests, and was a mix of comedy sketches, satire, music and big production numbers. Some of the guests of the show included Jackie Cooper, Michael Redgrave, Lena Horne and Fred Allen, and several writers also got their big break thanks to the success of the show. In 1952, Sid got his first Emmy Award, and “Your Show of Shows” would continue to run until 1954. After a few months, he created the variety sketch show “Caesar’s Hour” which consisted mostly of his previous crew; the budget of the show doubled and ran until 1958. Sid then continued to make appearances in other projects such as the musical “Little Me”, being nominated for a Tony Award.
Caesar found many opportunities that impacted his net worth. However, after the end of “Caesar’s Hour”, his success started to wane. He did several performances on stage during the 1970s, but later stopped as he struggled with alcoholism. He would make occasional appearances in the 1980s including in “History of the World, Part I”, which reunited him with writer Mel Brooks, and he also starred in “Grease” and “Four on a Garden”. In 1983, he hosted an episode of “Saturday Night Live”, and years later, he made a guest appearance in “Vegas Vacation” before appearing in “The Wonderful Ice Cream Suit”. In 2001, he also appeared in “Larry King Live” alongside comedian Drew Carey.
For his personal life, it is known that Sid married Florence Levy in 1943 and they had three children. She passed away in 2010. Four years later, he passed away at the age of 91 after a brief illness. Many comedians gave tribute to him after his passing.

Isaac Sidney Caesar Trademarks
- Comedy acts involving ordinary people in unrealistic situations
Isaac Sidney Caesar Quotes
- When I did comedy I made fun of myself. If there was a buffoon, I played the buffoon. And people looked at me and said, “Gee, that’s like Uncle David”, or “That’s like a friend of mine.”. And they related through that. I didn’t make fun of them. I made fun of me.
- The trouble with telling a good story is that it invariably reminds the other fellow of a dull one.
- The things I see now on TV and in movies are so outlandish. Kids doing rude things with pies! And the language that they use! It’s being outrageous for the sake of being outrageous. I can’t watch it. It turns me off.
- After all those years of doing a live, hour-and-a-half show every week, I’ve got nothing more I need to prove.
Isaac Sidney Caesar Important Facts
- $5,000 /week
- Infamous in his earlier years for an explosive temper and being quick to anger, one possibly apocryphal story has Caesar arguing with a cab driver over the fare and getting angrier by the moment. When the cabbie said “I’ll remember you, pal”, Caesar exploded, yelling “I’ll give you something to remember! Remember birth?” and then proceeded to reach into the cab, grab the cabbie by the neck and pull him out of the cab though the window of the driver’s door.
- Following his death, he was interred at Mount Sinai Memorial Park Cemetery in Los Angeles, California.
- Inducted into the Television Academy Hall of Fame in 1985.
- Awarded a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 7000 Hollywood Blvd. on February 8, 1960.
- He was the son of Jewish immigrants, Ida (née Raphael), from Russia, and Max Caesar, from Poland. The two ran a 24-hour luncheonette. Sid would help his parents by waiting on tables, and it was during this time that he learned to mimic many of the accents he would use throughout his long career.
- Despite his apparent fluency in many languages, in reality he can only speak English and Yiddish.
- At age 14 he first went to the Catskills as a saxophonist with Mike Cifficello’s Swingtime Six and would also occasionally perform in sketches.
- Arrived in New York City penniless and tried to join the musician’s union (later he audited classes at the famed Juilliard School of Music).
- Has played at the Vacationland Hotel in Swan Lake in the Catskills during his salad days. There, under the tutelage of Don Appel, the resort’s social director, Caesar played in the band and learned to perform comedy, doing three shows a week.
- Made his Broadway debut performing in the 1948 revue “Make Mine Manhattan”, which featured “The Five Dollar Date”, one of Sid’s first original pieces in which he sang, acted, double-talked, pantomimed and wrote the music.
- Caesar’s appearance in his first series The Admiral Broadway Revue (1949) with Imogene Coca was a huge hit with television audiences. Simultaneously broadcast on NBC and the Dumont network, its sponsor, Admiral Corporation, an appliance company, could not keep up with the demand for its new television sets, so the show was canceled on account of its runaway success.
- In his book “Caesar’s Hours”, he describes the essence of his comedy as “working both sides of the street”, the deliberate blending of comedy and pathos. His idols were Charles Chaplin, Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy, Buster Keaton and W.C. Fields.
- He gave up alcohol “cold turkey”. His autobiography, “Where Have I Been”, published in 1983 and his second book, “Caesar’s Hours”, both chronicle his struggle to overcome alcoholism and barbiturates.
- He was assigned as a musician in the Coast Guard, taking part in the service show “Tars and Spars”, where producer Max Liebman overheard him improvising comedy routines among the band members, and switched him over to comedy. Sid later made his film debut in the adaptation of his stage hit, Tars and Spars (1946).
