Paul Lynde, character actor, comedian and television star, was born in 1926 at Mount Vernon, Ohio. He studied drama at the ivy-league Northwestern University in Chicago. Among his classmates in the drama department there were Cloris Leachman, Charlotte Rae, Patricia Neal and Claude Akins. Paul graduated in 1948 and then moved to Manhattan, New York City, where he found work as a comedian.


Lynde made his Broadway acting debut in the hit revue, New Faces of 1952, in which he co-starred with Eartha Kitt, Alice Ghostley, and Carol Lawrence. His now-famous monologue from New Faces of 1952, the "Trip of the Month Club”, was used in an eponymous movie in 1954.


Paul Lynde subsequently co-starred in the television situation-comedy, Stanley, with Carol Burnett and Buddy Hackett. In 1960, Paul returned to Broadway, where he played the father in Bye Bye, Birdie. In 1963, the play was made into a movie, in which Lynde co-starred with Ann-Margret and Dick van Dyke.

Paul Lynde Trivia
  
Before joining the cast of Bewitched as Uncle Arthur in Season 2, Paul appeared in Season 1 as a nervous, crash-helmet wearing, driving instructor hired by Darrin to give Samantha driving lessons.
 
Paul spent 14 years occupying the center square of the original Hollywood Squares.

His sarcastic initial 'joke' answers were often laced with gay innuendo. It was no surprise that he excelled at delivering such quips and comebacks, as he was gay.

For example:

Peter Marshall: Paul? Why do the Hell's Angels wear leather while riding their motorcycles?

Paul: (Smirks.) Because chiffon wrinkles......
 
Paul Lynde prepared his beef stew recipe on the Mike Douglas Show. It has since become a favorite dish of many Americans.
