George Burns (born Nathan Birnbaum; January 20, 1896–March 9, 1996) was an American comedian, actor, singer, and writer. He was one of the few entertainers whose career successfully spanned vaudeville, film, radio, and television. His arched eyebrow and cigar-smoke punctuation became familiar trademarks for over three-quarters of a century.
When Burns was 79, he had a sudden career revival as an amiable, beloved and unusually active comedy elder statesman in the 1975 film The Sunshine Boys, for which he won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. He continued to work until shortly before his death, in 1996, at the age of 100, of cardiac arrest in his home.
Early life
George Burns was born Nathan Birnbaum on January 20, 1896 in New York City, the ninth of 12 children born to Louis "Lippe" and Dorah (née Bluth) Birnbaum, Jewish immigrants who had come to the United States from Romania. Burns was a member of the First Roumanian-American congregation.
His father was a substitute cantor at the local synagogue but usually worked as a coat presser. During the influenza epidemic of 1903, Lippe Birnbaum contracted the flu and died at the age of 47. Nattie (as George was then called) went to work to help support the family, shining shoes, running errands and selling newspapers.
"Your Mother Should Know" is a song by the Beatles from their 1967 record Magical Mystery Tour, released in the US as an LP on 27 November 1967 and in the UK as a double-EP on 8 December 1967. It was written by Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon–McCartney) based on a line from the screenplay for A Taste of Honey.
In the Magical Mystery Tour film
McCartney said he wrote it as a production number for the movie Magical Mystery Tour, supporting an old-fashioned dance segment that starts with the Beatles coming down a grand staircase in white tuxedoes. After they descend, Boy Scouts, RAF cadets and other groups march through. John Lennon, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr are wearing red carnations, while McCartney's is black. The carnation difference contributed to the "Paul is dead" urban legend.
The song was recorded in four sessions on 22 and 23 August, and on 16 and 29 September 1967. The remake from 16 September was left unused, and overdubs layered on the best take from 22 August. Mixing did not go any more smoothly, with sessions on 29 & 30 September, and 7 November 1967.
George Francis Burns III (born July 29, 1949) is an Americanprofessional golfer who has won several tournaments at both the amateur and professional levels.
Burns won four PGA Tour events during that phase of his career. His first win came with Ben Crenshaw at the 1979 Walt Disney World National Team Championship in Orlando. The biggest win of his career came a year later at the Bing Crosby National Pro-Am. Burns had more than 70 top-10 finishes on the PGA Tour. His best finish in a major was at the 1981 U.S. Open where Burns held a three-shot lead going into the final round before finishing T2. Burns also had a T-5 at the 1977 British Open.
After reaching the age of 50 in 1999, Burns began play on the Senior PGA Tour (now known as the Champions Tour). His best finish at that level is a T-9 at the 2000 Brickyard Classic. He lives in West Palm Beach, Florida. He has two daughters, Kelly and Eileen.
George Burns tells his favorite joke about a Broadway actor who played eight weeks of vaudeville in Cincinnati.

Linda Blair and Ben Johnson presenting George Burns with the Best Supporting Actor Oscar® for his performance in "The Sunshine Boys" at the 48th Academy Awards® in 1976.
George Burns (born Nathan Birnbaum; January 20, 1896–March 9, 1996) was an American comedian, actor, singer, and writer. He was one of the few entertainers whose career successfully spanned vaudeville, film, radio, and television. His arched eyebrow and cigar-smoke punctuation became familiar trademarks for over three-quarters of a century.
When Burns was 79, he had a sudden career revival as an amiable, beloved and unusually active comedy elder statesman in the 1975 film The Sunshine Boys, for which he won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. He continued to work until shortly before his death, in 1996, at the age of 100, of cardiac arrest in his home.
Early life
George Burns was born Nathan Birnbaum on January 20, 1896 in New York City, the ninth of 12 children born to Louis "Lippe" and Dorah (née Bluth) Birnbaum, Jewish immigrants who had come to the United States from Romania. Burns was a member of the First Roumanian-American congregation.
His father was a substitute cantor at the local synagogue but usually worked as a coat presser. During the influenza epidemic of 1903, Lippe Birnbaum contracted the flu and died at the age of 47. Nattie (as George was then called) went to work to help support the family, shining shoes, running errands and selling newspapers.
By the light of the moon To a 50's tune He pledged his love to her A girl so rare A girl so fair The girl for him for sure He could see himself getting up every mornin' For the rest of his life Just to look in those eyes so blue It was all he ever wanted to do She was all he'd ever need to see him through They were still in their teens When he gave her the ring They were married late one May And they moved into a little house On the far end of town Out by the big highway And all through the days And all through the nights The cars and trucks rolled on by And he slept through it all just fine Every night he slept just fine Sometimes she'd stare at the stars out the window Sometimes she'd walk `neath the moon Sometimes she'd sit there just watching him sleeping Hoping the dawn would come soon She'd done well in school She'd followed the rules And she'd always stood out from the rest She'd go off to college And work her way through Then move to some city out west She had it all planned She'd have her career She'd have all of the things that she'd always lacked She'd wake up one morning all packed And leave here and never look back Most of her friends thought it soon would be over Not many thought it would last Most seemed to think they were all wrong for each other And soon it would pass - soon it would pass Now twenty years have gone And her kids have moved on And she's still on the far end of town Her youngest - she's livin' somewhere in L.A. And her oldest - he works on a nearby farm Her husband comes home And they talk over supper He's usually the first to turn in Another day comes to an end Another day just ends And sometimes in the wee hours when the traffic dies down She'll hear the sound of some bird on the wing And she'll look out the window and she'll look at his picture But not at the ring - not at the ring
