Gil Lamb

He was the son of Mr. And Mrs. Lamb, and he attended East High School and the University of Minnesota. Lamb's entertainment career began in vaudeville, where his act "had a wonderful assortment of trick props". He followed that format with a harmonica act, which he performed across the United States and in most European countries before World War II. Lamb was also a stage actor, who appeared in several musicals on Broadway, including Folies Bergère (1939), Hold on to Your Hats (1940-1941), Sleepy Hollow (1948), and 70, Girls, 70 (1971). He performed at The Muny in St. Louis in 1935 and 1936. His films included Hit Parade of 1947. In addition to his work as an entertainer, Lamb owned a restaurant in New York and was part-owner of a New York company that built theatrical props.
