Parting Ways

Though mainly remembered as the founder of The Three Stooges, Ted Healy had an impressive career on his own as an actor and comedian. After starring in a few films with the trio, they parted ways due to a conflict regarding a movie contract and Healy went on to pursue a solo acting career. The night of his death- December 21, 1937- is still to this day steeped in controversy and believed to be among Hollywood’s infamous celebrity murder cover-ups.
