Harry Einstein (May 6, 1904 – November 23, 1958) was an Americancomedian and writer, usually known by the name Harry Einstein but variously credited as Harry Einstein, Parkyakarkus ("park your carcass") and Nick Parkyakarkus. He was famous as the character Parkyakarkus, a pseudo-Greek character comic on the Eddie Cantor and Al Jolson radio programs. He appeared in eleven films as Parkyakarkas from 1936 to 1945.
Personal life
Einstein was born in Boston, Massachusetts, the son of Sarah (née Klayman), who was born in Russia, and Charles Einstein, a pawnbroker from Austria. He married actress Thelma Leeds on February 7, 1937.
He started out a newspaper reporter in his native Boston, coming into comedy via Eddie Cantor's radio show. His own show soon followed, along with roles in films. He met his wife, Thelma, while making New Faces of 1937. Einstein was referred to by the name of his popular character so frequently, he filed to have his name legally changed to that of Parkyakarkas, but was turned down by a New York judge. His star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was awarded to Parkyakarkus.
