He was from the time when being in entertainment was about having talent rather than a pretty face or big bazongas.

From my hometown of Circleville, Ohio, Ted Lewis was a legend in the 1920s and '30s. I caddied for him once at Pickaway Country Club. "Me and My Shadow" and "When my Baby Smiles at Me" were just two of his many hits.

wow - the panel was a little testy with Ted! They didn't complain they couldn't hear the voice when Judy Garland was a guest

Ted Lewis (his catchphrase: "Is everybody happy?") was a beloved bandleader-clarinetist-songwriter-singer-monologuist with an incredible 102 hits between 1920 and 1938. Started in vaudeville, organized a terrific hot jazz band, eventually evolved in a maker of warm, sentimental nostalgic gems. Hisd theme: "When MyBaby Smiles At Me." His trademark? That battered top hat. Ted also backed Fats Waller, Ruth Etting and Sophie Tucker, among others. He died at 79 in 1971.
