John Connell (1923-2015), was an actor of both stage and film, began his career with a debut
in Broadway's Time Limit! (1956). He appeared in one more Broadway play in 1956, and
then went on to television, where he appeared in minor roles in several series. However, with
his warm toned voice, Connell is most known for his advertising work. At one time or
another, he has voiced commercials for various high ranking companies, such as Maxwell
House Coffee, American Airlines, Xerox, Proctor & Gamble, Ford, Uniroyal,
McDonald's, H&R Block and Brooklyn Union Gas. DANIEL BLUM (1900-1964)
founded Theatre World in 1945, serving as its chief editor until his death in 1964. Aided
by Norman McDonald and John A. Willis (his successor as chief editor), Blum also conceived
what would become the prestigious Theatre World Awards for promising new actors in the
New York stage, Broadway and later off-Broadway as well. Fine condition.
