I do not know about Sammy but you can see here on how to covert >> http://www.beingjewish.com/conversion/becomingjewish.html 

If you're a male, you first have to take a ride in a Ford: http://www.hulu.com/watch/2323     Sammy might have gone to a sawmill.

Sammy Dvis Jr. became Jewish to marry the love of his life, who was Jewish,  he at that time being Jewish would have been unusal, being Black. As for becoming Jewish, apart from the snip, i have no idea.:-)

He practiced Judaism-- That does not make him Jewish.  He claimed to be Jewish but he was black in and out, he recovered after a car accident that took his eye, he was fascinated by  the Jewish people and their determination to succeed that he wanted to be one.   He called himself the 'One Eyed-Negro-Jew'.  He was certainly entertaining and very talented but IMO, he played on the Jewish thing way too much. He wanted to be what he wasn't but he was successful, no doubt about that.

He was not the only one, there are more, he was just the only one at that time period that had made a name for hisself. Everyone knows that he was Jewish, and it was the punk line on a lot of jokes.

I have another Jewish story to share as part of this answer, and feel free to comment. Looking for more answers also about the Jewish.

Okay here we go again, talking about the man of my life, who happens to be a Jewish man, with limited education. So the stories that he tells are all about the crimes that he committed as a minor, and the women that he started having sex with before the age of ten. He tells the stories of how he use to race around with his home boys stealing cars to go racing at night. He tells stories on how close he came to dying by stupid acts with out thoughts for the outcome. He talks about how his brouther was a ladies man, and he knew over 3000 women on the basic level. He talks about his father and how mean and nasty he was, and how he kinked him out because of his temper. His father’s temper left very little room for healthy conversations about problems on any level. His stories about his mother is that she has never had one happy date yet, and she is ninty years old.

Is this okay because of this Jewish woman age?
