Greene was born in 1926, and grew up on the North Side of Chicago and served in the United States Navy during World War II. Greene had planned to become a gym teacher, but had been performing comedy at various venues in the upper Midwest, and started his comedy career at the Prevue Lounge in New Orleans, where he worked for six years. From there he went on to showrooms in Miami, Chicago, and Reno/Lake Tahoe before an agent persuaded him to move to Las Vegas and open for Dorothy Shay, "the Park Avenue Hillbillie," at the Last Frontier. His act was held over for 18 weeks, a first for the Strip.

Shecky (Sheldon) Greene may be one of the greatest Vegas comedians of all time. With a late night audience he could build momentum, ad-lib and really kill 'em. Variety TV posed constricting problems, but he still had sure-fire bits he could use. Just why some comics assumed a hand-on-stomach posture...who knows. Encourage belly laughs?
