About the Narrators
William Alexander “Bud” Abbott (1895–1974) was an American actor, producer, and comedian. He is best remembered as one half of the comedy team of Abbott and Costello, alongside Lou Costello.
Louis Francis
Cristillo “Lou Costello” (1906–1959) was an American actor and comedian
best remembered for the comedy double act of Abbott and Costello, with Bud
Abbott. The duo made thirty-six films between 1940 and
1956 and was among the most popular and highest-paid set of entertainers in the
world during World War II. In 1992 the city of Paterson, New Jersey, erected a
statue of Costello in the newly named Lou Costello Memorial Park in the city’s
historic district.
