Kaye, Danny [né David Daniel Kominsky] (1913–87), comic actor. The slim, supple, Brooklyn‐born comedian worked in vaudeville and at summer camps before making his Broadway debut in
The Straw Hat Revue (1939). He called attention to himself as the effeminate Russell Paxton in
Lady in the Dark (1941), in which he sang the tongue‐twisting “Tschaikowsky.” After appearing in
Let's Face It! (1941), he left for Hollywood and, except for appearances in vaudeville at the
Palace and at the Ziegfeld, did not return to New York until he starred in the musical
Two by Two (1970), in which he clowned as the Biblical Noah. Biography:
Nobody's Fool: The Lives of Danny Kaye, Martin Gottfried, 1994.
