Shemp was an original member of Ted Healy's Stooges on stage and was still with them when they made their first film 'Soup to Nuts' in 1930. He split soon after and was replaced by his younger brother Curly. Shemp would later rejoin the Three Stooges in 1947 when Curly became too ill to perform after a stroke.
