  • Kenny Kramer’s own fascinating life was the inspiration behind Cosmo Kramer from Seinfeld, perhaps the most iconic television clown of recent memory. Here we catch up with Kenny for an off-the-cuff dialogue at the Producer’s Club Theater in Manhattan. Topics include Kenny’s roots in comedy, his “Seinfeld Reality Tour” and one-man show, and his quixotic campaigns for mayor of NYC. In an age of growing conformity, with rising rents driving out NYC’s once world-famous cohort of quirky artists, Kenny Kramer-who hails from that former golden age of creativity-holds down the fort as one of the last colorful New York characters still going strong.

      i am the person in judge judy with bigot Kenny Kramer who never did a fundraiser to help a rape crisis center. the same man who used the n word often when i knew him. this guy is a liar! Lived in government funded housing making money off the books. Screwed over people , the guy is not a nice guy and truly a misogynist racist Then they used my idea, Larry David did and did not give me a penny. Larry David is not much different than kenny Kramer. kenny did everything to avoid paying people and boot legged his cable, amog other things. a real gem. I did get paid by Judge Judy show and it was fair. But kenny said to me. I dont have to do a fundraiser. I dont care. This was to raise money for rape victims. nice misogynist racist. No shock he is a democrat!

    Does Kramer have a sidekick like Newman?

      I agree, although I did not watch even 15 minutes of the video from lack of interest.

    He's not the "real Kramer". He is merely a small inspiration the fictional Cosmo Kramer.
    Michael Richards never met him. They are not at all alike.

    what a sad interviewer

    as far as I'm concerned Michael Richards is Kramer. Ever seen Richards in "comedians in cars getting coffee"?, he's so reminiscent of tv Kramer. Kenny Kramer sucks.

    I don't get why people were laughing in the audience; I didn't find this funny. I ended up not finishing this video; I was bored.

    I just finished watching Norm Macdonald talking about how smart comedians don't make Trump jokes at this point that this interview is taking place. And yet the interviewer takes the very first chance he can to make a Trump joke. Horrible comedy, Way too low of that hanging fruit to be funny

      Fine-Business Operator I saw an interview were Michael says he didn’t want to met him for sometime, then one day they finally got together like each other and became friends, so check your facts.
