Careers and relationship cemented in Hollywood history.

According to the AP, comedian Jerry Stiller and wife Anne Meara received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for their long-time contributions to the industry. The couple has been married for over 50 years, and have two famous children - actors Ben Stiller and Amy Stiller.

Jerry Stiller is perhaps best know for his portrayal as Frank Costanza on Seinfeld, father to the character played by Jason Alexander, who also attended the ceremony. More recently, Stiller plays a cynical father-in-law on CBS' long-running hit, King of Queens.

Meara has been nominated for an Emmy four times, including a lead actress nomination in 1975. Stiller and Meara are only the fourth married couple to receive a joint star, following the likes of Sonny and Cher, Ozzie and Harriet Nelson, and Jim and Marian Jordan.
