Comedic legend and star of the sci-fi comedy The Nutty Professor Jerry Lewis passed away yesterday at his home. He was 91 years old.

Born in 1926, Lewis went on to success as a comic, singer, actor and filmmaker. In 1963, he made The Nutty Professor as a wacky parody of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, blending science fiction and romantic comedy into a winning combination.
