He made his theatrical debut in 1972 with a show called <mask>'s Glasgow Flourish.He played at the festival. <mask>'s first solo album, <mask> Live!, was produced with a mixture of comedy and monologues. <mask> has appeared in many films as an actor, including Indecent Proposal, Mrs Brown, The Last Samurai, and Lemony.

He was knighted by Prince William for his services to entertainment and charity. In recent years, <mask> has established himself as an artist after retiring from comedy.He released the fifth release from his Born On A Rainy Day collection in London in 2020. <mask> said in the documentary that art had given him a new lease of life. <mask> was born on November 24, 1942, on the linoleum three floors up, in Glasgow. The section between Breadalbane and Claremont streets was demolished in the 70s. <mask> refers to this in his 1983 song "I wish I was in Glasgow" with the lines "I would take you there and show you but they've pulled the building down" and "they bulldozed it all to make a road". There were two rooms in the flat, one for the parents and one for the children. There was no hot water when the family bathed in the kitchen sink.<mask> was the son of <mask> and Mary McLean, both of whom were of Irish descent. <mask>'s mother left his siblings when he was four years old because their father was in the Royal Air Force. In 2009, <mask> said that he had never felt abandoned by her. My mother was a teenager. My father was fighting in a war. The Germans dropped a lot of stuff on the town. The bombs were happening at the docks.She was a teenager in a slum. A guy says he loves you. Come with me. I think I would have gone with him. From where you're standing, it looks like it will end next Wednesday. I don't have a lot of feelings for her. She tried to live.<mask> and his older sister, Florence, were cared for by his father's two sisters in their cramped tenement in Stewartville Street, Partick. My aunts told me I was stupid, which still affects me today. I think I'm not as good as other people. As you get older, it gets worse. I still have scars from that, but I'm a happy man now. <mask> referred to his sister as his "great defender". He said that the guys said that your sister was a nightmare.She used to chase them. Flo and her family were on a holiday in Dunoon in the 1960's. My mother said she followed Florence because she saw her walking. I asked if you spoke to her. She said she didn't. I thought, "Oh, my god." It's like being a phantom.You are walking behind your child. Having a look. I couldn't bear that. The children were resented by their aunts because they had to sacrifice their lives to look after them. She was troubled the most by having to care for her niece and nephew. I wish people wouldn't do that because it was very big of her to take on the responsibility. I don't want people to be big for five minutes and rotten for twenty years.I would rather have gone to a children's home and been with a lot of other kids being treated the same, so just keep your big and keep your rotten and get out of my life. I'm still working on the things she did to me. John Bradshaw's publications helped <mask> deal with his demons. If this trauma happened to you when you were five or six, he reckons that part of you remains. You have to help that other part of you by carrying that five- or six-year-old around with you. He's something of a genius, Mr., but it sounds a bit airy-fairy. Bradshaw.After moving to Partick, <mask>, Sr. returned from the war and was a stranger to his children. He didn't talk to them about their mother's departure. <mask>'s biography, <mask>, documented years of physical and sexual abuse by his father, which began when he was ten and lasted until he was 15. When my father hit me, I flew over the sofa in a sitting position. It was wonderful. You didn't get a cup of tea or a safety belt, it was just like real flying. Michael was born in 1949 by a local man.He was presented as a brother to <mask> and Flo. St Peter's Primary School was across the street from <mask>'s bedroom. The school has been converted into living quarters. The school was very violent. The nuns were violent in the infant school. Over here at St Peter's, they used to strap you all the time. Miss McDonald was a psychopath that I had in here.They called her "Big Rosie". She was a teacher and there was a guy with glasses in my class. <mask> wanted to make people laugh. I remember the moment in the playground. I would have been young. People were laughing as I sat in the puddle. People found it funny when I fell in it.I stayed in it longer because I enjoyed the laughing and it wasn't all that uncomfortable. Laughter was a joy because it wasn't something I heard all the time and I was very unhappy at the time. Life was pleasant if you could have an audience like that. <mask> joined a gang at St Peter's. He had an arch-enemy who lived around the corner. The 141st Glasgow Scout Group has a Wolf Cub named <mask>. During his World Tour of Scotland, he revisits the site of a scout camp.At 12 years old, <mask> decided he wanted to be a comedian, but he didn't fit the mold of what he wanted to be. He joined an organisation called The Children of Mary. A statue of the Lady of Lourdes would be displayed with the group's visit to people. We were welcomed the same as haemorrhoids. The group would kneel around the statue. There was a good television programme that people were hurrying to watch. In the 1950s, Glasgow's sandstone tenements fell out of favour with the planners, which resulted in new houses being built on the fields and farmlands in the outskirts of the city.Between the ages of fourteen and twenty, <mask> was brought up on a now-demolished council estate on Kinfauns Drive in the Drumchapel district of Glasgow. He rode the bus to Partick and then walked to 80 Vicarfield Street. Drumchapel is a housing estate. He has joked that it's in Glasgow, but outside of civilization. I liked it when I lived there. I moved to Drumchapel when I was fourteen and there was a bluebell wood that was in great condition, but I don't think it's in as good a condition now. I liked the rabbits and pheasants that we had.When I was older, I started to dislike it. It cost me a lot of money when I was stuck out there. It was a kind of cowboy town, but I liked buying stuff out of vans, a ragman coming in a wee green van. <mask> filmed for The South Bank Show in 1992. It started to fall apart. The place had a dreadful atmosphere. It's like Siberia.You can't get out of it once you're here. If you want to go to university, you have to buy your way out, or you have to be very bright and leave. At fourteen, <mask> became interested in Jerry Lee Lewis and Chuck Berry. He left school with two engineering qualifications, one of which belonged to a boy named Connell. <mask> was too young to work in the shipyards. He started delivering books on his bicycle at John Smith's Bookshop. When he was sixteen, he became a delivery-van driver for Bilslands' Bakery and became an engineer due to his J1 and J2 certificates.Alexander Stephen and Sons shipyard in Linthouse was where he worked as a boilermaker. <mask> returned to the site of the now-demolished shipyard in 1992. I spent a lot of my life here. I started at 15. I finished my apprenticeship at 21. I stayed until I was 22. When I was 24, I finished welding.There were six ships being built when I was an apprentice. It was an amazing place. There is a hive of activity. There are welders, caulkers, platers, burners, joiners, engineers and electricians. I learned how men talk to each other. It has left a mark on me. Jimmy Lucas and Bobby Dalgleish were the two biggest influences on him, according to the book written by his wife.<mask> was helped to hone his skills as a welder and a comedian by Jimmy, who was one of his trainers. <mask> joined the Territorial Army Reserve unit 15th (Scottish) Battalion. He wrote a song about his experiences. <mask>'s nickname "The Big Yin" was first used during his adolescence to differentiate between himself and his father. My father was a strong man. Strong and broad. He had a collar on his neck.It was like a bull. He was called "<mask>" and I was called "Wee <mask>". The whole thing got out of control when I got bigger than him. I became The Big Yin in Scotland. Someone would say '<mask> was in' when we went into the pub. Oh? <mask> or Wee <mask>?'The Big Yin' is what it is. Oh, Wee <mask>. You would think, "What are these people talking about?" <mask> attended the Edinburgh Festival Fringe for the first time in the early 1960s. After spending time on the city's Rose Street, he became enamored with some long-haired musicians and decided to model himself on them. <mask> accepted a ten-week job building an oil platform in Nigeria in 1965, after completing a 5-year apprenticeship as a boilermaker. He walked out on John Brown & Company on a Fair Friday to focus on being a folk singer after he returned to the United Kingdom.He bought his first banjo at the Barrowland market after watching The Beverly Hillbillies. The Scotia bar on Stockwell Street was where he began to tour with the folkie crowd. <mask> was introduced to the folk clubs by me. We used to go to the Folk Club. <mask> and Harvey formed a folk-pop duo. They were joined by another man, who had approached <mask> after a gig. After recording one album, Harvey left the band and <mask> and Rafferty went on to release two more albums.<mask>'s time with Rafferty may have influenced his future comedy, because years later he would recall how Rafferty's expert prank telephone calls, made while waiting to go on stage, used to make him "scream" with laughter. <mask>'s contributions were mostly pop-folk with quirky lyrics, but he had not focused on comedy at this point. <mask> and Pressagh were married in 1968, with <mask> having two children. When fans began to wait in the street, they moved to Drymen near the south-eastern shore of Loch Lomond. <mask>'s mother was working in the cafeteria at Dunoon General Hospital when she met <mask> backstage. Since abandoning <mask>, it was the second and final meeting between them. She lived with her partner, Willie Adams, with whom she had three daughters and a son.I went back to her house and stayed the night. We never got along, but she was a nice woman. I don't think she liked me very much because we both tried to like each other. I'm sad about it, but I don't regret it. I would have liked her. I wish she'd liked me. Can I Have My Money Back?, a solo album by Rafferty, was recorded after the break up of the Humblebums.<mask> was a folk singer. His live performances were long. Nat Joseph, who had signed The Humblebums and nurtured their career, was concerned that <mask> could follow in the footsteps of his former bandmate. <mask>'s comedy skills were noted by Joseph. After nurturing the recording career of another Scottish folk entertainer, Joseph saw potential in <mask> following a similar path. <mask> was told to stop singing and focus on becoming a comedian. <mask> made his theatrical debut in 1972 with a show called <mask>'s Glasgow Flourish.The Great Northern Welly Boot Show was written by him and he played it at the Edinburgh Festival with poet Tom Buchan. <mask>'s first solo album, Billy <mask> Live!, was produced in 1972 by Nat Joseph. The breakthrough album that propelled <mask> to British fame was produced by Joseph. The record was made at a small venue called The Tudor Hotel in Airdrie. Releasing a live double-album by a comedian who was virtually unknown (except to a cult audience in Glasgow) was an unusual move by Joseph but his faith in <mask>'s talent turned out to be justified. The album was promoted to chart success by Joseph and his marketing team. One of <mask>'s most famous comedy routines is "The Crucifixion," in which he compares Christ's Last Supper to a drunken night out in Glasgow.Many radio stations banned the recording at the time. He sold the Pavilion Theatre in 1974. In 1975, the rapidity and extent of <mask>'s breakthrough was used to secure him a booking on Britain's premier TV chat show. <mask> made the most of the opportunity and, ignoring objections from his manager, told a bawdy joke about a man who had murdered his wife and buried her bottom-up so he'd have somewhere to park his bike. He appeared on British television in the mid-1970s and made a big impact. The whole airport started to applaud when I came back to Glasgow after the show. <mask> has been a guest on fifteen occasions and holds the record for appearances on the programme.He said that the programme changed his life. <mask> told a joke to the 'bike joke' three decades after his TV appearance, according to Parkinson in the documentary. <mask> said that the material was "incredibly sensitive" for its time. My manager warned me not to do it, but it was a great joke and the interview was going so well, I thought, "Oh, fuck that!!" I don't know where I got the courage, but Michael put confidence in me. <mask>'s success spread to other English-speaking countries. His broad Scottish accent and British cultural references made him successful in the US.His increased profile led to contact with other celebrities. John was trying to help British performers achieve success in the US by releasing records on his own label. John tried to give <mask> a boost in America by using him as the opening act on his 1976 US tour, but it was a failure. John's American fans were not interested in being warmed-up by a comedian with a incomprehensible accent. Two years later, he told Michael Parkinson that he had been hit by a pipe in Washington. It was not my audience. They made me feel welcome, like a fart in a spacesuit.The quip made another guest laugh uncontrollably. <mask>'s popularity grew in the UK. He signed with Polydor Records in 1975. Several of <mask>'s songs enjoyed commercial success as novelty singles, including parodies of Tammy Wynette's song "D.I.V.O.R.C.E." The Village People's "In the Navy" was performed on Top of the Pops. <mask>'s first play, An' Me wi' a Bad Leg, Tae, opened in Irvine and toured in London. He collapsed on the floor of the studio after consuming a lot of cocaine and alcohol.<mask> met Pamela Stephenson, a New Zealand-born comedy actress, for the first time when he made a brief appearance on Not the Nine O'Clock News, in which she was one of the four regular performers. <mask> embarked on his Big Wee Tour of Britain, performing 69 dates in 84 days. He met Stephenson for the second time while backstage. He told her that his marriage was over and that he was unhappy. He drank thirty brandies when they began their affair at his hotel. In the dressing room, I saw that he was about to die. He was very sad.He tried to feel no pain at all by throwing everything away. You can get a sense from some people that they are trying to bury something when they are selfdestructive. They are trying to forget or drown their sorrows. He was hurting a lot. I thought that he was going to die if I left him. <mask> was invited by producer Martin Lewis to join the cast of The Secret Policeman's Ball, the third in the series of The Secret Policeman's Balls. <mask> was the first comedian in the series who was not from the Oxbridge school of middle-class university-educated entertainers and he made the most of his appearance.<mask> was seen as one of Britain's leading comedic talents because of his appearances in the company of long-established talents. Lewis, <mask>, and Cook appeared in a television commercial for the album. <mask> was invited to appear in The Secret Policeman's Other Ball by John and Martin Lewis. The commercial success of the special US version of The Secret Policeman's Other Ball film introduced <mask> to a wider American audience, who were attracted to the film because of the presence of Monty Python members. <mask>'s on-screen presence alongside these performers, who were already familiar to Anglophile comedy buffs, helped lay down a marker for <mask>'s eventual return to the US in his own right eight

She oversaw the collection of more than 600 pieces of historic art and furnishings for the White House, an acquisition larger than that of any other administration. Until twenty-five years later, she was the most traveled First Lady in U.S. history. She accompanied the President as the first First Lady to visit China and the Soviet Union, and was the first president's wife to be officially designated a representative of the United States on her solo trips to Africa and South America. President <mask> resigned after being re-elected in 1972, ending her tenure as First Lady.Later in life, her public appearances became less frequent.

She lived in New York City from 1930 until 1931, working as a secretary and as a radiographer.She majored in merchandising at the University of Southern California after being determined to make something out of herself.

She taught touch typing and shorthand at a high school and worked as a sales clerk in a department store. She took several screen tests while working as an extra and bit player in the film industry. She made brief appearances in films such as Small Town Girl. She ended up on the cutting room floor with her spoken lines.

When they were cast in The Dark Tower, they became friends at a Little Theater group. The first night they went out, Dick asked <mask> to marry him. I thought he was crazy.

She wrote and distributed literature.<mask> was elected to represent California's 12th congressional district. After six years, <mask> saw her husband move from the U.S. House of Representatives to the United States Senate. After moving to Washington, <mask> and her husband attended any Protestant church that was nearest to their home. The Metropolitan Memorial Methodist Church sponsored her daughters' Brownie troop and occasionally had Baptist services with the Reverend Dr. Billy Graham. At the time of her husband's consideration for the vice presidential nomination, <mask> was against her husband accepting the selection, as she despised campaigns and had been relieved that he would not have another one for six years. At the 1952 Republican National Convention, she heard the announcement of the pick from a news bulletin. <mask>'s attitude towards politics changed when her husband was accused of accepting illegal campaign contributions.<mask> encouraged him to fight the charges, and he did so by delivering the famous "Checkers speech", which was given to them by a political supporter. This was <mask>'s first national television appearance, and she, her daughters, and the dog were featured prominently. <mask> defended himself as a man of the people, then said that <mask> doesn't have a coat. I always tell her she would look good in anything because she has a Republican cloth coat. <mask> was with her husband when he was a vice president.

She was worried when <mask> lost to Kennedy.She traveled with her husband on campaign trips. The country had a new First Lady when <mask> won the presidency in 1968. <mask> felt that the First Lady should always set a public example of high virtue as a symbol of dignity, but she refused to revel in the trappings of the position. <mask> refused to do something similar to Lady Bird Johnson when considering ideas for a project as First Lady. Traveling and visiting people in other states or other nations was what she called personal diplomacy. She encouraged Americans to address social problems at the local level through volunteering at hospitals, civic organizations, and rehabilitation centers. She stated, "Our success as a nation depends on our willingness to give generously of ourselves for the welfare and enrichment of the lives of others."She visited ten different volunteer programs on her "Vest Pockets for Volunteerism" trip.

She arranged for the police who served as tour guides to wear uniforms with their guns hidden underneath, and instructed them to attend sessions at the Winterthur Museum, Garden and Library to learn how tours were guided.<mask> ordered that the blind be able to touch the antiques in order to help those who lip-read. The perception that the White House and access to the President and First Lady were only for the wealthy and famous caused the First Lady to come down from the family quarters to greet tourists, sign autographs and pose for photos. "She invited so many groups to the White House to give them recognition, not famous ones, but little-known organizations," said Julie Eisenhower. The three Kennedys had not been to the White House in eight years. <mask> ordered the visit to be kept a secret until after the trip's conclusion in order to maintain privacy for the Kennedys.

I don't like the spectacular. <mask> barely noticed the reports of a break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters when the Watergate scandal broke.She replied curtly, "I know only what I read in the newspapers." The reporter asked if the press was the cause of the president's problems. She shot back, "What problems?" Privately, she felt that the power of her husband's staff was increasing, and President <mask> was becoming more removed from what was happening in the administration. <mask> Eisenhower said that the First Lady would have destroyed the tapes if she knew of them. She opposed making the tapes public and compared them to private love letters. She believed in her husband's innocence and encouraged him to fight the charges against him.She said to her friend, "Dick has done a lot for the country." Why is this happening? She asked "But why?" after President <mask> told his family he would resign. She contacted White House curator Clement Conger to cancel any further development of a new official china pattern from the Lenox China Company, and began supervising the packing of the family's personal belongings. The family had their last dinner in the White House on August 7, 1974. <mask> held her chin high while sitting on the edge of a couch as a sign of tension with her husband. When the president walked in, she kissed him and said, "We're all very proud of you, Daddy."<mask> said of the photographs taken that evening, "Our hearts were breaking and there we are smiling." On the morning of August 9 in the East Room, <mask> gave a farewell speech to the White House staff, during which he read from Theodore Roosevelt's biography and praised his own parents. The First Lady was upset with the cameras because they recorded her anguish during the 1960 election defeat. Vice President Gerald Ford and Betty Ford were with the <mask>s. The president left the White House on Marine One. As the family walked towards the helicopter, <mask>, with one arm around her husband's waist and one around Betty's, said to Betty "You'll see many of these red carpets, and you'll get so you hate them." The helicopter took them to the Air Force Base."Watergate is the only crisis that ever got me down," <mask> told her daughter. Carl Sferrazza Anthony noted that ordinary citizens identified with <mask>. When a group of people from a rural community visited the White House to present a quilt to the First Lady, many were overcome with nervousness, but <mask> hugged each individual tightly and the tension dissipated. <mask> took a young boy to the family quarters and the laundry room after he doubted that the Executive Mansion was her house. She made no distinctions between people of different races. During the <mask>s' trip to China in 1972, Zhou En-lai was so enamored with her that he was going to give two rare giant pandas to the United States. From 1959 to 1962 and 1968 to 1979 <mask> was listed on the Gallup Organization's top-ten list of the most admired women.In 1969 she was ranked third, second and first. She was on the top-ten list for five years after her husband left office. She was seen as an example of the American Dream, having risen from a poor background, with her greatest popularity among the "great silent majority" of voters. The director of the United States Mint and a long-time friend of <mask>'s illustrated some of the cultural divides present at the time when she described the First Lady as a good example to the women of this country. The view of a veteran UPI correspondent was that <mask> was the warmest First Lady and the one who loved people the most. I think people who covered her saw a woman who was sensitive. <mask> was framed as an embodiment of Cold War domesticity by press accounts.Journalists saw her as a wife first and individual second and portrayed her as dutiful. She was described as the perfect wife and mother by Time magazine, doing her own housework even as the Vice President's wife. Critics dubbed her "Plastic Pat" because she was always smiling while her face rarely expressed emotion and her body language was artificial. <mask> was described as a paper doll, a Barbie doll, plastic, antiseptic, unalive, and she may no longer recognize it as such by some observers. She said that she is who she is and will continue to be. In a 1968 interview aboard a campaign plane with Gloria Steinem, she unguardedly revealed some of her opinions of her own life. I didn't just sit back and think of myself or what I wanted to do.I've been interested in people. I've continued to work. When I sit down, I write my thank you notes because I keep this case with me. Without a personal note, nobody gets by. I don't have time to think about who I admire or who I identify with. I've never been easy on myself. I'm not like everyone else.She wasn't as self-effacing and timid as her critics claimed, despite her largely demure public persona as a traditional wife and homemaker. She firmly replied, "I think we've had enough of this kitchen thing, don't you?" Robert E. Thompson wrote that <mask> proved that women can play a vital role in world affairs while still retaining a feminine manner. <mask> was portrayed as being out of step with her times by other journalists. The people who opposed the Vietnam War identified her with the policies of the <mask> administration and picketed her speaking events. One of the students told the press that she wanted to listen after she had spoken to some of them. This woman really cares about what we are doing.I was surprised. Mike Wallace regretted that he was never able to conduct an interview with <mask>. After returning to San Clemente, California, in 1974 and moving into the <mask>s' home, La Casa Pacifica, <mask> rarely appeared in public and only granted occasional interviews to the press. In May 1975, <mask> went to her hometown of Artesia to dedicate an elementary school. She said she was proud that the school carried her name. I thought only those who have left had schools named after them. I'm happy to tell you that I'm not gone.It was <mask>'s only public appearance in five and a half years. <mask> had a stroke on July 7, 1976, which paralyzed her entire left side. She eventually regained all her movement thanks to physical therapy. She said that her recovery was the hardest thing she had ever done. She and her husband lived on East 65th Street in Manhattan in 1979. In 1981 they moved to a house in New Jersey. The couple were able to be near their children and grandchildren because of this.<mask> was 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 She appeared "frail and slightly bent" in public for the opening of the <mask> Library and Birthplace.
