Life and career

When a theater student at Nassau Community College in the late 1970s, Nelson began doing stand-up in comedy clubs.

Nelson is best known for his rubber-faced comedies. He is also known for his Jacques-Yves Cousteau impersonations and his "football act," in which he parodies the old team's rundowns in the College Football All-Star games, in which players announce their names, numbers, and teams.

Nelson was Rodney Dangerfield's opening act for eight years and was included in two of Rodney's HBO stand-up comedy showcases, including Jerry Seinfeld, Roseanne Barr, Rita Rudner, and Bob Saget. Nelson was the subject of two HBO specials, including "Nelson Schmelson." Nelson was also in a comedy group called "The Identical Triplets" with Eddie Murphy and Rob Bartlett.

Nelson has appeared on television shows including Johnny Carson and several others, as well as touring Gallagher from 2016 to 17.

Nelson and his family and his show were relocated to Branson, Missouri, where he appeared on television for three years. Nelson and his family returned to Long Island in 2013.

Nelson was diagnosed with colon cancer in late 2020 and is currently undergoing chemotherapy to combat his illness.

Nelson received an Emmy Award in Philadelphia for a children's play he wrote and starred in called Double Muppet Hold the Onions in 1983. In Nora Ephron's debut directorial film This Is My Life, he appeared in supporting roles. In addition, he appeared in the film Brain Donors, the 1992 reprint of the Marx Brothers' comedy A Night at the Opera.
