An Original Vintage 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Photo (Learn More) George Burns was a legendary comedy actor in radio and film from the 1930s to the 1990s. He is well known for his radio show with his wife Gracie Allen (The Burns & Allen Show) from 1934 to 1950, which moved to TV in 1950, and ran until 1958, and was one of the most creative and innovative TV shows ever! He appeared in in a number of movies with Gracie in the 1930s and 1940s. Gracie passed away in 1964, and he had a successful solo career in such movies as Oh God!, The Sunshine Boys (in his Best Supporting Actor Academy Award winning role), and Going in Style AND Vanna White (born Vanna Marie Angel, and her parents were Puerto Rican and German/Italian) is a model, actress, and game show hostess from the 1980s to the present. She is best known as the hostess of TV's "Wheel of Fortune" since 1983 (alongside Pat Sajak), and both of them look much the same in 2017 as they did in 1983, which seems impossible! In 1987, she appeared on the cover and in an interior article of an issue of Playboy, in lingerie, but not nude, but she still regrets doing so! Important Added Info: Note that this photo was taken by "celebrity photographer" Peter C. Borsari. He was born in Switzerland in 1939, and starting in 1965, he became one of Hollywood's greatest celebrity photographers, and he was invited to all of Hollywood's premier events, where he was given access to take photographs of celebrities "behind the scenes", and he often contributed to People magazine, starting with the first issue, and having photographs in virtually every issue until the late 1990s, including many covers. His images were also used in all the other entertainment magazines and shown on television. He was also the exclusive photographer for the Playboy mansion special events and he photographed non-entertainment celebrities as well, including U.S. presidents, starting with Richard Nixon. He developed personal relationships with many celebrities and because they trusted him, and loved the photos he took, he would even photograph weddings and other personal events!
