Jerry Stiller: Ben Stiller

Jerry Stiller, though broke that time he asked Anne Meara out for coffee after a harrowing experience at the casting agent’s office, made a considerable degree of effort to make the fellow comedian fall for him. Luckily enough, Anne gave Jerry a chance, and they were married for over 60 years, a feat not common among Hollywood marriages. The couple also gave birth to a son, Ben Stiller.

While Jerry has already followed his wife Anne to the grave, it is as if he still lives on with Ben’s presence. One glance and the uncanny resemblance are apparent.  Needless to say, Ben, like his parents, is also an excellent comedian. It is fun to imagine what their dinner conversations were like when they were still all together. Ben began his career in 1989 as a writer for Saturday Night Live.  He has also starred in movies like Night at the Museum and Zoolander.
