Lee J. Cobb, one of the leading character actors in American film in the post-World War II era for three decades, was born on 8 December 1911 at the Lower East Side of New York City, Leo Jacoby. Young Leo was the son of a Jewish newspaper editor, a child prodigy in music, learning the guitar and the harmonica.
