Legendary comedian and actor Jerry Lewis has died at the age of 91.

The groundbreaking performer began his path to fame as Dean Martin’s stage partner. The two entertained audiences from stage to radio. They soon became a powerhouse duo in the movies, with Lewis becoming so prominent he was known to have “unparalleled green-light power” at Paramount studios.

Lewis was well known for his frantic zaniness and distinct voice. Some of his most famous films include The Nutty Professor and The Bellboy.

The actor’s death was reported by John Katsilometes of the Las Vegas Review-Journal in a tweet citing a statement from the Lewis family.

Lewis passed away at his Las Vegas home at 9:15 a.m. on Sunday morning. He is survived by his wife of 34 years and six children. His son Joseph passed away in 2009.

      The really-really good old days. The authentic humor I was raised with….funny, laughable, fun, truly enjoyable. Lewis was never as funny after he and Dean Martin split. Most of the greats are now gone. We are now left with a bunch of recycled unfunny, uncouth, agenda driven joksters…..except for actual comedians Jeff Foxworthy and Jeff Dunn…..the rest is hate or filth.
