  • 14 years ago
Thomas Frederick "Tommy" Cooper (19th March 1921 - 15th April 1984) was a British prop comedian and magician. While his stage persona required that his act (intentionally) went wrong for comic purposes, Cooper was a member of The Magic Circle, and respected by traditional magicians. Famed for his red fez, he was commonly cited as one of the best comedians of all time.
