His mother was born in New York City to Irish immigrants, while his male parent was an Irish gaelic immigrant from Cloghan, a village in the Glenfin district of Canton Donegal in Ulster,[8] leading Carlin to describe himself equally "fully Irish".[9] Mary Bearey and Patrick John Carlin had married in Manhattan in Nov 1930, Mary being Patrick John'due south second wife.[8] In his posthumous autobiography Concluding Words, Carlin wrote that, when his first married woman Brenda was live, "I used to take a fantasy of Ireland, the southeastern parts and so that it would exist a footling warmer, and the two of us in that location, shut enough to Dublin that you could go buy things you needed."[x]

His maternal grandfather, Dennis Bearey, was a police officer in the New York City Police force Department (NYPD), who during the form of his life wrote out the works of William Shakespeare by manus for the enjoyment.[11] [12] Carlin recalled that his grandmother's maiden name was O'Grady, but it was changed to Grady before she reached the U.S. He later on joked that they "dropped the 'O' in the ocean on the way here". He named his character on The George Carlin Evidence "O'Grady" as a tribute to her.[13] He had an older brother named Patrick Jr. His parents separated when he was ii months quondam because of his father's alcoholism, then his mother raised him and his blood brother on her own.[fourteen]

Carlin said that he picked up an appreciation for the constructive use of the English language from his mother,[15] though they had a difficult human relationship and he often ran away from dwelling house.[16] He grew up on West 121st Street in the Morningside Heights neighborhood of Manhattan, which he and his friends called "White Harlem" because it "sounded a lot tougher than its real name".[17] He attended Corpus Christi School, a Roman Cosmic parish schoolhouse of the Corpus Christi Church building in Morningside Heights.[18] [19] One of Carlin's all-time babyhood friends was fellow student Randy Jurgensen who went on to become i of the virtually busy homicide detectives in the NYPD's history.[xx] His mother owned a television, which was a rare and new engineering at the time, and Carlin became an gorging fan of the pioneering tardily-night talk testify Broadway Open House during its curt run.[21] He went to the Bronx for high school but, after three semesters, was expelled from Central Hayes Loftier School at age 15. He briefly attended Bishop Dubois High Schoolhouse in Harlem and the Salesian High Schoolhouse in Goshen.[22] He spent many summers at Army camp Notre Dame in Spofford, New Hampshire, where he regularly won the camp's drama award. Afterwards, at his request, some of his ashes were spread at Spofford Lake upon his death.[23]

Carlin joined the U.Southward. Air Force and trained as a radar technician. He was stationed at Barksdale Air Force Base in Bossier City, Louisiana, and began working equally a disc jockey at the radio station KJOE in nearby Shreveport. Labeled an "unproductive airman" by his superiors, he received a full general discharge on July 29, 1957. During his time in the Air Force, he had been court-martialed 3 times and received many nonjudicial punishments and reprimands.[24]

Career [edit]

1960s [edit]

In 1959, Carlin met Jack Burns, a young man DJ at radio station KXOL in Fort Worth, Texas.[25] They formed a comedy squad and after successful performances at Fort Worth's beat out coffeehouse called The Cellar, Burns and Carlin headed for California in February 1960.[5]

Within weeks of arriving in California, Burns and Carlin put together an audience tape and created The Wright Brothers, a morning prove on KDAY in Hollywood. During their tenure at KDAY, they honed their material in beatnik coffeehouses at night.[26] Years later when he was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Carlin requested that it be placed in front of the KDAY studios near the corner of Dusk Boulevard and Vine Street.[27] Burns and Carlin recorded their only album, Burns and Carlin at the Playboy Order Tonight, in May 1960 at Cosmo Alley in Hollywood.[26] After two years together as a team, they parted to pursue individual careers, but "remain[ed] the best of friends".[28]

In the 1960s, Carlin began actualization on television diversity shows, where he played various characters:[29]

  • The Indian Sergeant – "There will be a pelting trip the light fantastic this evening ... conditions permitting ..."
  • Stupid disc jockeys ("Wonderful WINO radio ...") – "The Beatles' latest tape, when played backwards at slow speed, says, 'Dummy! You lot're playing it backwards at slow speed!'"
  • Al Sleet, the Hippie-Dippie Weatherman – "Tonight's forecast: Dark. Connected more often than not nighttime this evening, irresolute to widely scattered light towards morning."

Variations on these routines announced on Carlin'southward 1967 debut album, Take-Offs and Put-Ons, which was recorded live in 1966 at The Roostertail in Detroit, Michigan and issued by RCA Victor in 1967.[29] During this catamenia, Carlin became a frequent performer and guest host on The This night Evidence, initially with Jack Paar as host, and so with Johnny Carson. Carlin became one of Carson'due south most frequent substitutes during the host's three-decade reign. Carlin was as well bandage in Away We Go, a 1967 comedy show that aired on CBS.[30] His material during his early career and his appearance, which consisted of suits and brusque-cropped pilus, had been seen every bit "conventional", especially when contrasted with his later on anti-institution material.[31]

Carlin was present at Lenny Bruce's arrest for obscenity. As the constabulary began attempting to detain members of the audience for questioning, they asked Carlin for his identification. Telling the constabulary he did not believe in regime-issued IDs, he was arrested and taken to jail with Bruce in the aforementioned vehicle.[32] In the late 1960s, Carlin was making about $250,000 annually.[33] As a tax shelter, he bought a twin-engine Aero Commander 1121 Jet Commander private jet and hired pilots to fly him to various bout dates.[34]

1970s [edit]

Over time, Carlin changed his routines and his appearance; he grew his hair long, sported a beard and earrings, and typically dressed in T-shirts and blueish jeans. He lost some Boob tube bookings by dressing strangely for a comedian at a time when groomed, well-dressed comedians were the norm. He hired talent managers Jeff Wald and Ron De Blasio to assist him change his image, making him look more than "hip" for a younger audience. Wald put Carlin into much smaller clubs such as The Troubadour in West Hollywood and The Bitter End in New York City, and later said that Carlin's income was thus reduced by 90% simply his later career arc was greatly improved.[33] In 1970, record producer Monte Kay formed the Little David Records subsidiary of Atlantic Records, with comedian Flip Wilson equally co-owner.[35] Kay and Wilson signed Carlin away from RCA Records and recorded a Carlin performance at Washington, D.C.'southward Cellar Door in May 1971, which was released equally FM & AM in January 1972. De Blasio was busy managing the fast-paced career of Freddie Prinze and was about to sign Richard Pryor, so he released Carlin to Footling David general manager Jack Lewis, who, like Carlin, was somewhat wild and rebellious.[36] Using his ain persona as a springboard for his new comedy, he was presented by Ed Sullivan in a operation of "The Pilus Slice" and quickly regained his popularity as the public caught on to his sense of manner.[37]

Starting in 1972, singer-songwriter Kenny Rankin was Carlin's label mate on Piffling David Records, and Rankin served many times every bit Carlin's musical guest or opening deed during the early on 1970s. The two flew together in Carlin's private jet; Carlin says that Rankin relapsed into using cocaine while on tour since Carlin had and then much of the drug available.[34] The album FM & AM proved very popular. It marked Carlin's change from mainstream to counterculture comedy. The "AM" side was an extension of Carlin's previous style, with zany but relatively clean routines parodying aspects of American life. The "FM" side introduced Carlin's new mode, with references to marijuana and birth control pills, and a playful examination of the word "shit". In this manner, Carlin renewed a style of radical social commentary one-act that Lenny Bruce had pioneered in the late 1950s.[33]

In this flow, Carlin perfected his well-known "seven muddied words" routine, which most notably appears on Class Clown as follows: "'Shit', 'piss', 'fuck', 'cunt', 'cocksucker', 'motherfucker', and 'tits'. Those are the heavy seven. Those are the ones that'll infect your soul, curve your spine and keep the country from winning the war." On July 21, 1972, Carlin was arrested after performing this routine at Milwaukee's Summerfest and charged with violating obscenity laws.[38] The case, which prompted Carlin to refer to the words for a time equally the "Milwaukee Seven", was dismissed in December when the judge declared that the language was indecent but that Carlin had the freedom to say information technology as long as he caused no disturbance.[39] In 1973, a homo complained to the FCC afterward listening with his son to a similar routine, "Filthy Words" from Carlin's Occupation: Foole, which was broadcast one afternoon over radio station WBAI. Pacifica received a commendation from the FCC for violating regulations that prohibit broadcasting "obscene" material. The Supreme Court upheld the FCC activeness by a vote of 5 to four, ruling that the routine was "indecent only non obscene" and that the FCC had authority to prohibit such broadcasts during hours when children were likely to exist among the audition.[forty] [41]

The controversy increased Carlin's fame. He somewhen expanded the "dirty words" theme with a seemingly interminable stop to a performance, finishing with his voice fading out in ane HBO version and accompanying the credits in the Carlin at Carnegie special for the 1982–83 season, and a set of 49 web pages organized by subject area and embracing his "Incomplete Listing of Boorish Words".[42] On stage, during a rendition of this routine, Carlin learned that his previous comedy album FM & AM had won a Grammy. Midway through the performance on the album Occupation: Foole, he tin exist heard thanking someone for handing him a piece of paper. He then exclaimed "shit!" and proudly appear his win to the audience.[43]

George Carlin was arrested seven times for reciting the "Seven Dirty Words" routine.[44]

Carlin hosted the premiere broadcast of NBC's Saturday Night Live on October 11, 1975. Per his request, he did not appear in its sketches.[45] The following season, 1976–1977, he appeared regularly on CBS Television's Tony Orlando & Dawn variety series.[46]

Carlin narrated the first 4 seasons of what would afterwards become known every bit Thomas & Friends for use on Shining Time Station. According to Britt Allcroft, who developed both shows, on the first day of the assignment, Carlin was nervous well-nigh recording his narration without an audition, then the producers put a stuffed teddy bear in the booth.[55]

The prove, created and written past The Simpsons co-creator Sam Simon, ran 27 episodes through December 1995.[56] In his final book, the posthumously published Last Words, Carlin said about The George Carlin Show, "I had a bully fourth dimension. I never laughed so much, and so oft, so hard equally I did with bandage members Alex Rocco, Chris Rich, Tony Starke. At that place was a very strange, very adept sense of humor on that phase ... [but] I was incredibly happy when the bear witness was canceled. I was frustrated that it had taken me away from my true work."[57] [ page needed ]

2000s [edit]

Carlin afterwards explained that there were other, more than pragmatic reasons for abandoning his acting career in favor of standup. In an interview for Esquire magazine in 2001, he said, "Because of my abuse of drugs, I neglected my business affairs and had big arrears with the IRS, and that took me xviii to twenty years to dig out of. I did information technology honorably, and I don't begrudge them. I don't detest paying taxes, and I'thousand not aroused at anyone, because I was complicit in it. Just I'll tell you what it did for me: it made me a style ameliorate comedian. Because I had to stay out on the route and I couldn't pursue that movie career, which would have gone nowhere, and I became a actually adept comic and a actually good writer."[59]

In 2001, Carlin was given a Lifetime Achievement Honour at the 15th Annual American One-act Awards.

The bill was referred to the House Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution in January 2004, where it was tabled.[60]

Carlin performed regularly as a headliner in Las Vegas, but in 2004 his run at the MGM Grand Las Vegas was terminated afterwards an altercation with his audience. After a poorly received set, filled with dark references to suicide bombings and beheadings, Carlin complained that he could not expect to go out of "this fucking hotel" and Las Vegas; he wanted to go back eastward, he said, "where the real people are". He connected: "People who go to Las Vegas, you lot've got to question their fucking intellect to start with. Traveling hundreds and thousands of miles to essentially requite your money to a large corporation is kind of fucking moronic. That's what I'chiliad ever getting here is these kind of fucking people with very limited intellects." When an audience fellow member shouted, "Finish degrading us!" Carlin responded, "Thank yous very much, whatever that was. I promise information technology was positive; if not, well, blow me." He was immediately fired, and soon thereafter his representative announced that he would begin treatment for alcohol and prescription painkiller addiction on his own initiative.[61] [62]

The "Carlin Warning" [edit]

After Carlin's seven muddied words routine and subsequent FCC five. Pacifica Foundation Supreme Court ruling in 1973, broadcasters started to apply the "Carlin Warning" to remind performers of the words they could not say during a live operation.[132]

Internet hoaxes [edit]

Many writings found on the cyberspace take been falsely attributed to Carlin, including diverse joke lists, rants, and other pieces. The web site Snopes, an online resources that debunks urban legends and myths, has addressed these hoaxes. Many of them contain textile that runs counter to Carlin's viewpoints; some are specially volatile toward racial groups, gay people, women, the homeless, and other targets. Carlin was aware of these bogus e-mails and debunked them on his own website, saying, "Hither's a dominion of thumb, folks: Nothing y'all come across on the Internet is mine unless it comes from one of my albums, books, HBO specials, or appeared on my website," and "It bothers me that some people might believe that I would be capable of writing some of this stuff." Weird Al Yankovic referenced these hoaxes in a line of his song "Stop Forwarding That Crap to Me" by saying "And past the fashion, those quotes from George Carlin aren't actually George Carlin".[133]
