BURNS, GEORGE U.S. Comedian/Actor/Singer George Burns moved in the course of his lengthy career from serving as a vaudeville straight man to being one of the grand old men of American show businessand an expert on the history of entertainment in the United States. The television program he shared with his wife, comedienne Gracie Allen, for eight years (1950 to 1958 on CBS) was central to Burns' professional life, chronologically and symbolically. According to accounts of his early life (all of which originate from Burns himself), he was drawn to show business as a small child, singing on street corners with friends for pennies, and never seriously considered any other calling. Burns floundered in vaudeville for years, changing his act with great frequency, until he met Allen in 1922 (or 1923; accounts vary), and the couple inaugurated the straight-man/"Dumb Dora" pairing they would enact for more than four decades. The team moved successfully into film and radio in the early 1930s and finally into television in October 1950. In The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show

About Us Aging 101 Arts in Aging Centenarians ... TCGEC Photo from Houston Chronicle, page 1D, Jan. 18, 1996: "100 Facts about Centenarian George Burns" by Andy Edelstein of Newsday. On January 20, 1896, Nathan Birnbaum was born destined to become George Burns, one of this Nation's greatest comedic performers and a centenarian. Why did he reach his destiny and others did not? No one can say for sure. But he did have three good things going for him: he had a great set of genes; a great sense of humor; and a great capacity to never give up working, never give up loving, and never say never. While many of us may not be as lucky as the late Mr. Burns was in the "good genes" department, we can, nevertheless, learn from him and develop a good sense of humor and never say never. And while our lives might not be as long as his, they can be as rich and rewarding. Well, those are questions for another time. For now we celebrate George Burns' 100th year of life and salute him for all the good times he gave us. We also thank him for so ably demonstrating how older people improve the quality of our lives.
