Born on November 30, 1924, in Chicago, Illinois, Sherman's most notable work came in the form of his comedic musical albums, particularly "My Son, the Folk Singer" (1962) and "My Son, the Celebrity" (1963). These albums featured clever and humorous parodies of popular songs, often poking fun at various aspects of American culture.
