#Quote
1I am proud of my ancestry, and that it was of the theater and the American theater too, but I am far prouder of the fact that neither my father nor my grandfather handed down a joke. And it is my ambition to follow their example in this respect. Each of us wanted and wants all his jokes in his own generation if not entirely of his own generating.
#Fact
1Former vaudeville song-and-dance man best remembered as "Kit" Carson in 'The Time of Your Life' (1948).
2Son of James Charles Barton, an interlocutor with the West and Primrose Minstrels, and Clara Anderson Barton, also a trouper.
3One of the first genuine jazz dancers in America, he was a genuinely versatile performer: adept at Struts, a Mooche, a knock-about dance, Military drill, a dying Swan burlesque, Ballroom dances, Ballet, Tap, Pedestal dances, Black face comedy, imitations like Charlie Chaplin, Buck and Wing, Acrobatic dance skits, challenge dances, waltzes and more.
4Befriended fellow dancer Bill "Bojangles" Robinson.
5Cited by Bing Crosby as one of his all-time favorite ten performers.
6Introduced Babe Ruth to Claire Merritt Hodgson (then Claire Hodgson) before a New York Yankees-Washington Senators game in Washington. Hodgson was on tour with Barton at the time with the Broadway-bound musical "Dew Drop Inn".
