Early history

---

Born in Brooklyn, New York, Seinfeld attended the Birch Lane Elementary School and Massapequa High School, he attended the State University of Oswego (SUNY Oswego) in upstate New York, but transferred after a few semesters. Right after graduation from Queens College, he tried out at an open mic night at New York's Catch A Rising Star in 1976. He was known for his incredibly dedicated and devoted work ethic (It is said that Seinfeld traveled in an intense snow storm to a comedy club just to find it empty). Soon after, Seinfeld was appearing in a Rodney Dangerfield HBO special. Seinfeld had a small recurring role as "Frankie", mail delivery boy who had a slew of comedy routines that no one wanted to hear, on the Benson sitcom in 1979, but was abruptly fired from the show. A few years later, in May of 1981, Seinfeld made a highly successful appearance on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Seinfeld then became a regular on similar shows, including Late Night with David Letterman and The Merv Griffin Show.
