Grock "The king of Clowns" At one time, the highest paid entertainer in the world. Active as a clown from 1890-1954, and died at age 79, in 1959

His act was a mixture of pantomiming and musical comedy. He was a musician at heart who had joined the circus after traveling abroad and picking up multiple instruments. He was a part of many acts with others but always stole the spotlight.
