I remember seeing him on TV as a kid and just thinking that he was
funny in an off-beat sort of manner. It wasn't until I was a little
older that I realized that he was either gay or pretending to be, and
remember being amazed that this was permitted on TV! Remember, this
was a good quarter-century before shows like Will & Grace and Queer
Eye were commonplace.
Anyways, reading his obit, it turns out he was a lot more than just
a game-show cut-up. He won a Tony as an actor, and was nominated as a
director.
