Hank the Angry Drunken Dwarf (born Henry Joseph Nasiff Jr.; April 20, 1962 – September 4, 2001) was an American entertainer.
Hank appeared numerous times on The Howard Stern Show and on the televised studio segments which aired on the E! channel.
He was a member of the show's Wack Pack.
His career began August 16, 1996, when he entered Stern's studio at radio station WXRK (K-Rock) in New York City.
Hank was 4 ft 1 in (1.24 m) tall, and weighed 95 lb (43 kg; 6.8 st). Hank received widespread media coverage in 1998 when he won a People magazine online poll asking the public to vote for the most beautiful person in the world as part of the run up promotion for the magazine's "50 Most Beautiful People" issue.
When the public was given the option to submit a write-in candidate, the magazine had not counted on 230,169 votes for Hank the Angry Drunken Dwarf—beating out assorted celebrities by a wide margin.
In third place was Leonardo DiCaprio with 14,471 votes.
In the early years of public participation on the Internet, media critics responded by wondering whether this was evidence of an emerging digital democracy.
