Starting with the ORIGINAL, these are the guys you need to know. John Belushi JAKEBorn in Chicago on January 2. John Belushi was the second child and eldest son of restaurateur Adam an Albanian immigrant and his vivacious wife, Agnes whose parents were Albanian immigrants. From a very young age, John and his older sister, Marian where allowed to roam their neighborhood of Humboldt Park unsupervised by adults. This fostered in John an early sense of independence and love of adventure. When John was six, his family moved to the western suburb of Wheaton, Illinois, where two more sons, Jim actor James Belushi, and Billy where born. The small town of Wheaton was a stark contrast to the city life John had known. The swarthy Albanian immigrant son, he became the perfect all American boy during his high school years, quite unlike his later wildman public persona. Co captain of the Wheaton Central High School football team, he was an All State nominated line backer and was elected homecoming king his senior year. He also developed an interest in comedy and acting while in high school, and appeared in the high school variety show and numerous plays, including a four person drama which won third place in state competition. During the summer before his senior year, John met and fell in love with his future wife, Judy Jacklin. In the fall of his freshman year at the University of Wisconsin at Whitewater, Johns image radically transformed when he grew his hair long, donned a peace symbol, and took to wearing bellbottoms. His politics became radical as well, and he became active in the anti war movement. Finances were tight, so John left Whitewater and transferred to the College of Du. Page, a junior college a few miles from his parents home. This was good news to Judy as she was then a senior in high school. While attending Du. Page, John formed the West Compass Players, an improv comedy troupe patterned after Chicagos famed Second City ensemble. In 1. 97. 1, John made the leap to Second City itself where he formed lifelong friendships with fellow performers Harold Ramis, Brian Doyle Murray, and Joe Flaherty. After a little over a year at the Second City, John was cast in the off Broadway stage show of National Lampoons Lemmings, a rock musical revue. John and Judy moved to New York City, where they both worked for National Lampoon. To everyones surprise, and to Johns delight, the show played to full crowds for nearly ten months. In 1. 97. 4, John was hired as a writer for the syndicated National Lampoon Radio Hour. Shortly after, he became the shows creative director and immediately hired old friends Ramis, Doyle Murray, and Flaherty, and added the young Gilda Radner, a Toronto Second City alumne, to the group. This team also created the National Lampoon Show, which opened in NYC in 1. Subsequent additions to the cast included Bill Murray and Richard Belzer. Johns big break came later that same year when he joined NBCs groundbreaking TV series Saturday Night Live. It was here that he rose to fame and his unpredictable, aggressively physical style of humor blossomed.
