was a Broadway stage manager, serving 9 plays between 1955 (A Roomful
of Roses) to 1965 (Alfie!). He later produced the light spy
caper, Mrs. Polifax, Spy, starring Rosalind Russell in her last
feature film (1971). Baritone singer JOHN RAITT (1917-2005) came to national
attention when he took over the role of Curly in the national tour of
Oklahoma (1944). The following year, he debuted on Broadway as the star
of Carousel. He took his stage role in The Pajama Game
(1954) to the screen (1957). He didn't much like film work, however,
preferring to tour in stage performances. Raitt popularized such favorites as
"If I Loved You" and "Hey There". He had a one-man show in the 1980s. John Raitt
is the father of popular singer Bonnie Raitt. The two appeared together,
and sang at each other's weddings. Corners slightly worn. Water damage across
