comedian. He won an Oscar and a Golden Globe for his supporting role in
the 1957 film Sayonara.
- "The combination of his red hair and
the large, shiny buttons on the bellhop uniforms inspired orchestra
leader Charles "Dinty" Moore to call him "Red Buttons," the name under
which he would later perform." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Buttons
- "since he wore a bellhop uniform, he was, naturally, called Buttons,
and at the time his hair was red. The name stuck, even though his hair
turned dark brown as he got older." https://www.nytimes.com/2006/07/14/arts/14buttons.html
