Al Lewis Fast Facts:

Decided at some point in his life to pretend he was 13 years older than he actually was, possibly to fit the part of elderly Grandpa Munster on the 1964-66 sitcom The Munsters.
Notoriously told stories about his life that could not be verified; in one tall tale, he claimed to have worked on a defense committee in the politically charged case of the anarchists Sacco and Vanzetti...at the age, it turned out, of 4.
His second wife once told the New York Times that "he always told me he was born in 1910," adding, "I don't think it matters at all."
Ran a successful Greenwich Village, NY, eatery.
Hosted a radio show on WBAI-FM in New York, NY.
Campaigned against the death penalty and certain drug laws in his home state of New York.
Ran as a Green Party candidate for governor of New York in 1998...wearing a pony tail.
