Gus Wickie

August Wicke (May 7, 1885 - January 3, 1947), also known as "Gus Wicke" and "Gus Wickie", was a German-born American baritone singer, and stage and voice actor.
==Life and career==
Wicke was born in Germany and immigrated to the United States with his father, also named August Wicke. He became a U.S. citizen when his father was naturalized before the younger Wicke reached the age of majority. He was living in West New York, New Jersey, when he registered for the World War I draft in 1917, at the age of 33.〔
Wicke began in the entertainment world as early as August 1916, when he appeared on Broadway in ''The Big Show'', produced by Charles Dillingham at the Hippodrome Theatre, which ran for 425 performances, until May 1917.〔(''The Big Show'' ) on the Internet Broadway Database〕 He was a member of various harmony singing and comedy groups, including The Texas Four, which had broken up by 1926, The Westerners, which became active at around that time, and the Shanley Trio.
〔 He appeared in Boston in ''Here and There'' by director and producer R. H. Burnside in 1929,〔 then, less than two years later, Wickie was back on Broadway in the musical comedy ''Ballyhoo of 1930'', which ran for only 68 performances, from December 1930 to February 1931, at Oscar Hammerstein's Hammerstein Theatre.〔(''Ballyhoo of 1930'' ) on the Internet Broadway Database
Wickie was the voice of Bluto in the Fleischer Studios' ''Popeye'' cartoons from 1935 until 1938, a year often cited incorrectly as his death. His final performance for Fleischer was as the "Chief" in ''Big Chief Ugh-Amugh-Ugh''. It appears that when the Fleischer Studios moved from New York City to Miami, Florida, in 1938, Wickie stayed behind and continued working in the entertainment industry.〔
Wickie was known for his nightclub performances around New York City, particularly at Bill's Gay Nineties, a venue run by Bill Hardy, but also at Radio Franks Club.〔 Wicke generally made up a quartet with Spike Harrison, Fred Bishop, and a fourth member who was not permanent.〔 He was listed in ''Billboards February 19, 1944, list of performers who appeared under the aegis of the American Theatre Wing to entertain the troops.〔
Wickie died in Belleville, New Jersey on January 3, 1947, at the age of 61.〔
