[ send me this paper ]
This 6
page report discusses the comic actor Andy Kaufman (1949-1984).
People who are aware of Andy Kaufman appear to have one of two
attitudes about him -- they love him, thought him to be a comic
genius, and are certain he was greatly under-estimated. The
other attitude is that Kaufman was tiresome, a mediocre talent,
and are certain he was greatly over-estimated. Regardless of
personal likes or dislikes, one can see that Kaufman always
presented his commentary on contemporary life. Whether the
audience liked or agreed with it was not his concern.
