I was fortunate to see him perform in Berkeley, once when I was a child, once when in college. I loved his "David and Goliath" sketch, with a rock-like set he would repeadedly go behind, then emerge as David, then Goliath, making himself appear smaller, then larger.

Mike Miller, for your challenge to name one other mime, there was Jean-Louis Barrault, who I knew of only because of the 1943-45 movie "The Children of Paradise," that became a cult classic when re-shown in the 60's and 70's. It starred him, who was France's "other" great mime of Marceau's era. But your point is well-taken. Marceau brought mime to international fame as nobody else had done.
