Comedian and filmmaker Jerry Lewis is recovering after a hospitalization in Las Vegas.
Lewis’ publicist said he was admitted for a urinary tract infection on Friday but is doing fine now with antibiotics, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The 91-year-old was also hospitalized in 2012 for issues with his blood sugar and in 2011 for exhaustion.

Never one to slow down, Lewis is still working like a man half his age. He recently appeared in the films “The Trust” with Nicolas Cage and “Max Rose” in a lead role.
He’s off to Toronto this week to shoot a new movie.
As Lewis told Raymond Arroyo last year about turning 90 in an exclusive interview that aired on EWTN, “You’re thanking God quietly for the gift [of old age], because I think it’s a gift. According to the census in this country, there’s not a lot of people that make 90. So you start off with gratitude and making sure you don’t forget the blessings.”
