Stiller spent decades performing as half of the comedy duo Stiller and Meara with his wife, Anne Meara, before a late-career second act made him a household name: Frank Costanza on Seinfeld and Arthur Spooner on The King of Queens, both earning him widespread acclaim for turning grumpiness into something beloved. He also appeared on screen alongside his son Ben Stiller in films including Zoolander.
