Stand Up Comedian Hats
Description: Mooney was born in 1941 in Shreveport, Louisiana, and moved to Oakland, California, seven years later. His parents were George Gladney and LaVoya Ealy. Mooney was raised primarily by his grandmother Aimay Ealy, known among the family as "Mama". Gladney coined the nickname "Mooney" after the original Scarface (1932) actor Paul Muni (which itself was the actor's stage name)
Description: A stand up comedian delivers zingers to audience while gripping microphone and stand for support. Surely the most terrifying of performance arts - stand up comedy means placing yourself out there in front of the baying crowd. I mean audience. Try to look relaxed, in control and get off quick before they stop laughing and start throwing things.
