A minor prototype of the "Runyon-esque" character for more than three decades, Polish-born actor George E. Stone (né George Stein) was in actuality a close friend of writer Damon Runyon and would play a host of colorful "dees, dem and dos" cronies throughout the 1920s, '30s, and '40s. With great names such as Johnnie the Shiek, Boots Burnett, Ice ...
Was going blind in the 1960s and feared he would never work again. Actor and friend Raymond Burr gave him a job on the Perry Mason series as the court reporter. He appeared in 44 episodes.
