== Early life ==
Rickles was born on May 8, 1926〔 in the New York City borough of Queens to Max Rickles (1897-1953), who emigrated in 1903 with his parents Joseph and Frances Rickles (Richters) from Kaunas, Lithuania〔World War I draft registration, NY City, #31-9-149-B, Max S. Rickles, born 12 Aug 1897 in Kovna (Kaunas), Russia〕 (then in the Russian Empire), and Etta (Feldman) Rickles (1898-1984), born in New York to immigrant parents from the Austrian Empire.〔US Census, 1930. Queens, New York, Supervisor's District 33, sheet 6A, family #136〕〔US Census, 1920. NY City, Enumerationer's district 1508, Sheet 33A, family #138〕〔55113/mr-warmth-the-don-rickles-project-mr-warmth---the-don-rickles-project〕 His family was Jewish and spoke Yiddish at home. Rickles grew up in the Jackson Heights area.〔Witchel, Alex. (" I'm No Howard Stern, You Dummy" ), ''The New York Times, ''August 25, 1996. Accessed 2007-10-08.〕 After graduating from Newtown High School, Rickles enlisted in the U.S. Navy and served during World War II on the motor torpedo boat tender USS ''Cyrene'' (AGP-13) as a seaman first class. He was honorably discharged in 1946. Two years later, he studied at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, then played bit parts on television. Frustrated by a lack of acting work, Rickles began doing stand-up comedy, performing in clubs in New York, Miami, and Los Angeles. He became known as an insult comedian by responding to his hecklers. The audience enjoyed these insults more than his prepared material, and he incorporated them into his act. When he began his career in the early 1950s he started calling ill-mannered members of the audience "hockey puck()."〔''The Tonight Show with Jay Leno'' April 15, 2009〕 His style was similar to that of an older insult comic, Jack E. Leonard, though Rickles denies that Leonard influenced his style.
