FREDDIE PRINZE BIOGRAPHY |
|
|
Freddie Prinze (June 22, 1954–January 29, 1977) was a American comedian and actor.
He was born Frederick Karl Pruetzel at St. Clair's Hospital in New York, New York, the son of Karl Pruetzel and Maria.
Freddie was raised in the Washington Heights section of New York. His father was of Hungarian Jewish descent and his mother was Puerto Rican Catholic. Ever the comic, Freddie invented the designation "Hungarican." But he self-identified as Puerto Rican.
For his budding career as a comedian, he changed his name to Prinze. He chose that because, according to his friend David Brenner, he wanted to be known as the "King" of comedy, but Alan King already had that last name, so he would be the "Prince" of comedy instead. Although he came to view comedy as his calling, from an early age Freddie was interested in music. He took piano lessons and taught himself the guitar and drums (the latter he played in a band as a young teen). |
