I recognized him immediately. But SC is right - I'm not sure many people outside of the NY/NJ area would know him. (Although he did start out on TV in Philadelphia in the late 1950's before he came to New York.) He also had a long career on FM radio in NY.
The photo was taken a few years ago, but he is alive and well - and will turn 94 in September.
As a matter of fact, Signora V. and I met him at a convention back in 1993. A very nice fellow. I still have an inscribed autographed photo of him hanging on my wall.
Signor V.
"For me, there's only my wife..."
"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"
"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"
"It was a grass harp... And we listened."
"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"
