Danny Kaye
David Daniel Kaminsky was born on January 18, 1913 in Brooklyn to Jewsih parents of Ukranian descent. In 1944, Samuel Goldwyn fretting over his new star's ethnic appearance ordered Danny Kaye to get a nose job which Danny refused to do. Instead the studio boss settled for dying Danny's hair a red-golden hue and this together with his beaky nose became the comedian's trademark.
