Gilbert Gottfried, who died Tuesday at 67 after a long battle with muscular dystrophy, left behind a deep archive of recorded material, most of it never seen
Gilbert Gottfried's 'Problem Child' Director Recalls Standing Up to Studio to Let Him Riff: "He's That Funny"“If Cameo had a Mount Rushmore,” says the company’s co-founder and CEO Steven Galanis, “Gilbert would certainly be on it.”
“I’ll put extra effort into things,” he said. “I’ll look stuff up about what they do for a living and tailor my jokes to that.” “He put the work in every day and gave it 110 percent,” says Galanis. “Think in retrospect how sick he was. And yet he left it all out there. Even when he was ill, Cameo was a way for him to earn money for his family and pay his bills.”
Gottfried’s passing comes amid a wave of high-profile comedian deaths, several of whom — Bob Saget and Norm Macdonald most notably — were regularly fixtures on the platform.
