From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Arnold Stang (born September 28, 1925 in Chelsea, Massachusetts) is a comic actor who plays a small and bespectacled, yet brash and knowing big-city type.
Never known as a solo performer (despite the existence of an unsold television pilot called The Arnold Stang Show), he works best in, and prefers, an ensemble cast in which he plays only one of a diverse group of comic characters.
He was popular in the late 1940s as a sidekick to comedian Henry Morgan on the latter's old-time radio show. He also is well remembered as the voice of the Hanna-Barbera cartoon character Top Cat. He provided the voice of the Honey Nut Cheerios Bee in the 1980s.
In one of the weirdest-ever movie pairings, Stang was teamed with the young Arnold Schwarzenegger (billed as "Arnold Strong") in the latter's first film, the 1970 camp classic Hercules in New York.
His wife, Joanne Stang, is a writer for the New York Times.
