Of English language and Scotch-Irish ancestry,^[vi] Winters had described his father as an alcoholic who had trouble holding a job. His grandad, a frustrated comedian, owned the Winters National Bank, which failed as the family's fortunes collapsed during the Keen Depression.

When he was vii, his parents separated.

Alone in his room, he created characters and interviewed himself. A poor educatee, Winters connected talking to himself and developed a repertoire of foreign sound effects. He often entertained his loftier school friends by imitating a race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.^[10]

In another television set interview, Winters described how deeply he was hurt by his parents' divorce. He fought youthful tormentors who ridiculed him for not having a father in his life. When the tormentors were not around, he would get to a building or tree and weep in despair.

Winters' career started as a result of a lost wristwatch, about vi or seven months after his spousal relationship to Eileen in 1948. The newlyweds couldn't afford to buy another ane. Then Eileen read well-nigh a talent contest in which the beginning prize was a wristwatch, and encouraged Jonathan to "go downwards and win it." She was certain he could, and he did.^{[five] [14]} His performance led to a disc jockey job, where he was supposed to introduce songs and announce the temperature.^[v] Gradually his ad libs, personae, and antics took over the show.^[15]

He began comedy routines and interim while studying at Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio.

Winters recorded many classic one-act albums for the Verve Records label, starting in 1960. Probably the best known of his characters from this flow is "Maude Frickert", the seemingly sweet erstwhile lady with the barbed tongue. He was a favorite of Jack Paar, who hosted The Tonight Show from 1957 to 1962, and appeared often on his goggle box programs, even going and then far as to impersonate then–U.South. president John F. Kennedy over the telephone as a prank on Paar.

Carson often did not know what Winters had planned and usually had to tease out the character'due south backstory during a comedic interview. Carson invented a grapheme called "Aunt Blabby", which was like to and possibly inspired by "Maude Frickert".^[19]

Winters appeared in more than 50 movies and many idiot box shows, including particularly notable roles in the movie It'due south a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World and in the dual roles of Henry Glenworthy and his nighttime, scheming blood brother, the Rev.

In his interview with the Annal of American Television, Winters reported that he spent viii months in a individual psychiatric hospital in 1959 and again in 1961. The comic suffered from nervous breakdowns and bipolar disorder.^[3] With an unprecedented frenetic energy, Winters fabricated obscure references to his illness and hospitalization during his stand-up routines, most famously on his 1960 comedy album, The Wonderful World of Jonathan Winters. During his archetype "flight saucer" routine, Winters casually mentions that if he wasn't careful, the authorities might put him back in the "zoo", referring to the establishment.

"These voices are always screaming to get out," Winters told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. "They follow me around pretty much all twenty-four hour period and night." Winters was able to use his talents in vocalization-over roles as a result.

Comedy style and legacy [edit]

A pioneer of improvisational stand-upward comedy with a gift for mimicry, impersonations, various personalities, and a seemingly bottomless reservoir of artistic energy, Winters was i of the first celebrities to go public with a personal mental illness issue and felt stigmatized as a result.^[46] According to Jack Paar, "If you were to enquire me the funniest 25 people I've ever known, I'd say, 'Here they are—Jonathan Winters.'" He also said of Winters, "Pound for pound, the funniest homo alive."^[46]

With his round, rubber-faced mastery of impressions (including ones of John Wayne, Cary Grant, Groucho Marx, James Cagney, and others) and improvisational one-act, Winters became a staple of late-nighttime goggle box with a career spanning more than 6 decades. With notable honors, many tv set show, film and comedy excursion appearances, Winters was known to start his stage shows by commanding an applauding audition that had risen to its feet to: "Please remain continuing throughout the evening."^[3]

Winters performed a wide range of characters: hillbillies, big-headed city slickers, nerve-shattered airline pilots trying to hide their fearfulness, disgruntled westerners, judgmental Martians, little old ladies, nosy gas station attendants, a hungry cat eyeing a mouse, the oldest living airline stewardess, and more. "I was fighting for the fact that yous could exist funny without telling jokes," he told The New York Times, adding that he thought of himself foremost as a writer and less as a stand-up comedian. He named James Thurber's sophisticated absurdity every bit influential and said he idolized writers with a gift for humor.^[iii]

Two of his most memorable characters, cranky granny "Maude Frickert" and bumpkin farmer "Elwood P. Suggins" ("I recollect eggs 24 hours a solar day"), were built-in from his early television routines. Robin Williams one time told Playboy why Mr. Winters inspired him. "It was like seeing a guy behind a mask, and y'all could see that his characters were a great way for him to talk nigh painful stuff," he said. "I constitute out subsequently that they are people he knows—his mother, his aunt. He'due south an artist who besides paints with words. He paints these people that he sees."^[iii]

Jonathan Winters crashes through a wall. It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World (1963)

Onstage and off, Winters was wildly unpredictable. He was ofttimes viewed by producers as a liability, and this led to a scattershot, though memorable, picture show career. On television receiver, his two cocky-titled variety shows displayed him in dazzling form equally a sketch comic and impersonator.^[three]

Winters was an inspiration for performers such as Johnny Carson, Billy Crystal, Tracey Ullman, Lily Tomlin, Steve Martin, Jim Carrey, and Jimmy Kimmel. Robin Williams credited Winters as his one-act mentor, and the ii co-starred on Mork & Mindy.^[47]
