Jews are, perhaps, the originators of the modern nerd stereotype. Why? Maybe their long, scholarly tradition, maybe their immigrant past (comparable to AsianAndNerdy and the BollywoodNerd), maybe their [[JewishMother overbearing]] {{Education Mama}}s, maybe for some other weird reason. But for whatever reason, you will rarely see a stupid Jewish character on TV (unless he or she is more of a DitzyGenius or GeniusDitz). In RealLife, many prominent doctors, lawyers, authors, scientists, and philosophers have been of Jewish descent. Nearly 20% of all Nobel Prizes have been awarded to people of Jewish descent.
