Julius Tannen

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Julius Tannen (May 16, 1880 – January 3, 1965) was a comedian – or monologist, as those of his era were known – who had a long and successful career in Vaudeville. He was known to stage audiences (and respected by other monologists) for his witty improvisations and creative word games.

He is best known to film audiences from the musical Singin' in the Rain, in which he appears as the man demonstrating a talking picture early in the film.
