However, his career has taken him into every aspect of show business, including stage, film, and television as a producer, director, writer, author, actor, journalist, documentarian, and even cartoonist. He is also a member of the Metropolitan Opera Company in New York City.
William Claude Dukenfield (January 29, 1880–December 25, 1946), better known as W. C. Fields, was an American comedian, actor, juggler, and writer. Fields’s comic persona was a misanthropic and hard-drinking egotist, who remained a sympathetic character despite his snarling contempt for children.
