A cousin of mine who went by the

stage name of Michelle (Mike)

Bourbon who started clowning with

Kenny Dodd on the Beatty show and

then spent several years on RBBB

became the boss clown on Bartok

We had spent some of our early

years on farms not far from each

other in central Jersey but lost

track as we grew up & apart until

the mid 60s when Mike came to

work on the Beatty show
