Comic actor (think: “The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show” (1950-1958)) George Burns was born as Nathan Birnbaum on January 20, 1896 in New York City, New York. He said, “You know you're getting old when you stoop to tie your shoelaces and wonder what else you could do while you're down there." [Why waste a good bend?]...
