Larry began performing as a violinist at a young age. During his teenage years, he earned his living as a singer and boxer. At 18, Larry began working vaudeville with "The Haney Sisters and Fine" and in 1925, he joined Ted Healy and Moe Howard in the act that would eventually become The Three Stooges. Fine made more than 200 films before a stroke forced him to retire in 1970.

Did you know

Edit
  • Trivia
    After Columbia shut down its shorts department, the Three Stooges took their act on the road. What they did not know was that they had found a renewed popularity thanks to their old theatrical film shorts being sold to television, exposing them to a whole new (and younger) audience. Larry's sister recalled that when their train pulled into some towns, there were mobs of people waiting. Larry, Moe and Joe DeRita would wonder who the V.I.P. was; they had no idea the crowd of people waiting was for them.
  • Quotes
    [to Ted Healy, who said he would pay $100 for his act but to forget the violin] For $100, I'll forget everything!
  • Trademarks
      Always played the middle stooge with a receding hairline and bushy, unkempt hair. While he was not as dominating as Moe or as distinctive as Curly or his replacements, his relative normality allowed him to play the necessary straight man to the others.
