Even in the face of unimaginable tragedy and grief, Martin Short has always kept his sense of humor. As a young man, he channels three devastating personal losses into becoming a performing dynamo.

The Canadian city is a hotbed of future comedy icons like Eugene Levy, Catherine O’Hara, and Gilda Radner. And Martin fits right in. It starts with a production of “Godspell,” and Martin never looks back. It takes him to stardom on TV, stage, and the big screen. And now, with “Only Murders in the Building,” a bromance with Steve Martin, and a rumored romance with Meryl Streep, this triple-threat Emmy winner is as hot as ever.
