(26 November 1953 - 20 January 1962) ( divorced) ( 3 children)
"Nice person. Florence Baum was her name then. A dancer. She was dancing in a Broadway show and I was dating a friend of hers who went off to Europe for the summer. Florence consoled me and I married her. She liked my jokes. We had three children together, but we had married too young. I excepted I would marry my mother and she expected she would marry her father. It reached the point where it was irreparable, and the best thing to do for the entire family was to separate. It was done mutually. I think she did a splendid job with the children. They're healthy, terrific kids and it's all due to their mother's upbringing. Stefanie's 18, Nicky's 17, Eddie's 15 and they're all very gifted and lively."
