Avery Lawrence Schreiber (April 9, 1935 – January 7, 2002) was an American comedian and actor. He was a veteran of stage, TV, and film.

Biography[link]

Schreiber was born in Chicago, Illinois, the son of Minnie (née Shear) and George Schreiber. He started his career in Chicago at the Goodman Theatre. He joined The Second City and later teamed with Jack Burns to form the comedy team of Burns and Schreiber. They recorded several comedy albums and appeared on numerous television shows.

Schreiber is remembered for his many Doritos ads in the 1970s, as well as his appearances in classic television shows. He was easily recognizable for his trademark bushy moustache, curly hair, and comedic reactions. In 1965, Schreiber played the role of Captain Manzini on ''My Mother the Car''.

In the summer of 1973, he hosted the ABC comedy show, ''The Burns and Schreiber Comedy Hour.''

Schreiber was a regular guest star on ''Chico and the Man''. He was also a frequent guest on the game show ''Match Game'' and a guest in a first-season episode of ''The Muppet Show'' (written by former partner Jack Burns, whom he mentioned during a stand-up routine in the episode).

Avery continued to work in film, television and the Theater, as well as teach Improvisational Theater technique to thousands of students up until the time of his death. He taught master classes at The Second City in Chicago and Los Angeles as well as teaching out of his living room.

Death[link]

In 1994, Schreiber suffered a heart attack, a complication of diabetes. Though he survived triple bypass surgery, he never fully recovered. He died of another heart attack on January 7, 2002 at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. He was residing in Los Angeles at the time of his death. He was cremated.

Timothy J. Kazurinsky (born March 3, 1950) is an American actor, comedian and writer best known as a cast member on ''Saturday Night Live'' and for his role as Carl Sweetchuck in the ''Police Academy'' films. He is known for playing mousy, sheepish characters.

Kazurinsky was born in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, but spent most of his childhood in Australia, where he lived until the age of 16. At age 11, Kazurinsky attended the Huntley Evans School of Performing Arts, where he studied the creative arts for six months before quitting due to intense hazing.

He moved to Chicago to start a comedy career and joined the Second City mainstage in 1978. He was discovered by ''Saturday Night Live'' and joined ''SNL'' as a writer and cast member in 1981. A producer at ''SNL'', who was also a friend of Kazurinsky's, bumped Paul Reubens (later known for his character Pee-wee Herman), from the line-up and put Kazurinsky in his place.

On ''Saturday Night Live'', Kazurinsky played various characters and was known for his celebrity impersonations. There were reports that he often clashed with then-executive producer Dick Ebersol regarding the show's creative direction. In 1984, he decided to leave ''SNL'' due to creative differences with the producers.

Shelley Morrison (born October 26, 1936) is an American actress. Early in her career, she was sometimes credited as Rachel Domínguez. Morrison has been a theater and television actress since the early 1960s, predominantly as a character actress in ethnic roles. Her most recognizable role has been as the maid Rosario Salazar in the NBC comedy television series ''Will & Grace'', which she played from 1999 to 2006. She was a regular performer on the sitcom ''The Flying Nun'' playing Sister Sixto, a nun known mostly for mangling the English language; and she continued in television guest roles until securing a recurring role in the soap opera ''General Hospital'' in 1982. She has been called a non-Hispanic but is actually a Sephardic Jew of Spanish descent.

Biography[link]

Early life[link]

Morrison was born Rachel Mitrani in New York City, the only daughter of Sephardic Jewish parents originally surnamed Mitrani. She was raised in the Bronx, New York. Her father, Maurice Morris, was a clothing manufacturer. Morrison moved to California with her parents in 1946.

Career[link]

Morrison went on to study acting at Los Angeles City College and landed early film roles in ''Divorce American Style'' and ''How to Save a Marriage (And Ruin Your Life)''.

Her most widely recognizable recent role has been as the Salvadoran maid Rosario Inez Consuelo Yolanda Salazar in the NBC comedy television series ''Will & Grace'', which she played from 1999 to 2006 and which she appeared in 68 episodes. The role was originally created for a brief one-episode appearance, but Rosario was so popular with viewers that the character became a regular. In addition to sparring with her libertine and very spoiled employer, Karen Walker (Megan Mullally), Rosario married Karen's gay friend Jack McFarland (Sean Hayes) to prevent her impending deportation.

In approximately 25 film appearances and 200 television appearances, Morrison has portrayed a maid or housekeeper on 32 separate occasions. Morrison had just informed her agent not to offer her any more "maid parts" when the call for ''Will & Grace'' came in.

Battle with cancer[link]

A bout with breast cancer in 1988 forced her to undergo a lumpectomy, and when the cancer recurred in 1998 she underwent a full mastectomy. She has had lung cancer and underwent surgery to remove the upper third of her right lung. She lives with her husband of many years, Walter Domínguez, a Mexican-American, in a three-story apartment in Los Angeles - the same apartment in which her father had settled the family five decades earlier. Morrison and Dominguez have no children.

Morrison revealed that she was diagnosed with lung cancer in recent years, but that she is now in remission. Her breast cancer, for which she was treated in 1988 and 1998, has returned.

She endorsed U.S. Congressman Dennis Kucinich for President in 2008, actively fundraising, contributing to his campaign, and seeking votes for him.
