Stan Kann
Stan Kann (December 9, 1924 – September 29, 2008) received national recognition in the 1960s when he was a frequent guest on ''The Tonight Show'' and daytime television talk shows, showcasing his collection of vacuum cleaners. Kann also was known among theatre organ aficionados for his 22-year tenure as resident organist at the Fox Theatre in St. Louis, Missouri.
==Organist==
Kann, a native of St. Louis, began playing the organ at age 4. He majored in classical organ at Washington University in St. Louis. In the late 40's, he convinced the management of the Fox Theatre in St Louis to allow him to refurbish the 4-36 Fox Special Wurlitzer which had lain idle for twenty years and became official house organist in 1952. Kann served as the theater's resident organist until 1974, four years before the Fox closed.〔Bickel, Vernon P. (2000, July/August). ''The Fabulous Fox Theatre in St. Louis: Celebrating Over 70 Glorious Years''. Theatre Organ Magazine ()〕 In 1956, Kann installed a Wurlitzer in the famous St. Louis restaurant "Ruggeri's On The Hill" later owned by Stan Musial and played there regularly until 1974. His Saturday evening performances at Ruggeri's were broadcast on the NBC Network from 1964 to 1974.〔
