My Take
Joe E. Brown belongs to an era of comedy that is too easily forgotten, yet his warmth still radiates from old photographs and that famously wide, elastic grin. Being among the most popular American comedians of the 1930s and 1940s meant lifting spirits through hard, anxious decades, which I think deserves more credit than nostalgia usually grants. What moves me is that he earned not only a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame but also a Bronze Star Medal. A man who made people laugh and also lifted the morale of troops is, to me, well worth rediscovering.
