The only thread I saw about him was 12 years old, so here's a new one.
I first saw Jeff on TV, in the early 1990s. He did an episode of a Showtime series called A Pair of Jokers, and his co-act that night was Rondell Sheridan. Anyway, that performance introduced me to many of Jeff's now-iconic characters, such as Peanut the Woozle, Walter, and José Jalapeño (others like Bubba J and Achmed the Dead Terrorist would be invented many years later). I also read his 2010 biography, All By My Selves, humorously written in an external perspective with his characters commenting on his own life experiences.
Personally, Jeff has been married twice: first to Paige Brown, with whom he has three daughters, and more recently to Audrey Murdick, mother to his twin sons. Aside from his stage act and family, Jeff also restores antique ventriloquist dummies, builds his own homemade helicopters, and even owns the Batmobile from Tim Burton's original 1989 movie. Here's some clips of his work - I hope you like them.
