I researched and added the Andy Kaufman tree. There might be some branches that could be connected to the big tree. Please have at it.

We really need a Comedians project.

I have found Radovsky in Lithuania in the town my ancestors came from. Berstein and Sperling are names that I have encountered in that area as well, so who knows.

Roduka is a village near Merkine and the Radovsky family may be from there.

I added a placeholder for Carol Kane, but she has no profile on Geni. I added Abraham Cahan.

Abraham Cahan MacKinlay Kantor (my fourth cousin so connecting him to the Big Tree was easy).

Why don't you start the Comedians project, Hatte. I'll definitely help out. Then we can also link it to the BIG! TV project. lol

You know, my son is a stand up comic and studies all the old greats, so even though I don't have a funny bone in my body, I get a bit by osmosis.

Matt Besser is my 2nd cousin but I have not met him. His grandmother and my grandfather were siblings.

My son studies / works / performs at UCB in Manhattan, so was tickled to know that Matt Besser was a Rubenstein descendant.

I want to make sure the Borscht Belt comedians like Joey Adams are in the project, but I have to do a lot of work to find their families.
