About
A cornerstone of the Dean Martin era, Don Rickles, “the Merchant of Venom,” has raked a parade of celebrities (such as Princess Margaret and Ronald Reagan) over the coals at his shows. He has enlivened films such as Casino and Toy Story, and is a regular, caustic presence on the talk-show circuit.
