Carl Ballantine

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Carl Ballantine (born September 27, 1922) is an American actor, magician and comic. He was born in Chicago. Under the guise of "The Amazing Ballantine", Ballantine's trademark involves magic tricks, which always flop in comedic fashion. He was the husband of actress Ceil Cabot (8 March 1927 - 24 January 2000) and is the father of actress Sara Ballantine. His most recent film appearance was in "Aimee Semple McPherson ," a 2006 biographical film about the fabled female evangelist. He is probably best remembered as "Gruber"; one of the PT boat sailors in the television series McHale's Navy which aired in the 1960's.
