Biography

Samuel Burl "Sam" Kinison, a renowned American stand-up comedian and actor, was born on December 8, 1953, and tragically passed away on April 10, 1992. Kinison's unique brand of humor was marked by its intensity, harshness, and unapologetic lack of political correctness. Prior to his career in comedy, he had a background as a Pentecostal preacher, which heavily influenced his comedic style.

Kinison's stand-up routines were often characterized by their intense nature, reminiscent of charismatic preachers, and were frequently punctuated by his signature scream. This distinctive aspect of his comedy set him apart from other comedians of his time and contributed to his enduring popularity.
