MINI BIO
Ray Walston was a slight, energetic American actor whose film roles have been few but almost always ripe and juicy ("Damn Yankees," "South Pacific"). A stage actor until the early 1950s, Walston was older than he looked and began to appear like a wizened hobgoblin with the advent of the 1970s. He was also very popular as the extra-terrestrial visitor in TV's long running sitcom "My Favorite Martian".

Mr. Quimby: working late, long day.
Mrs. Phoebe Tuttle: Don't put me on, Quimby. You've had at least three scotches and you're winded from chasing your pretty secretary. But don't worry, Quimby, I'll ok her next raise.
Mr. Quimby: I've always considered you, not only my boss, but a dandy friend, Mrs. Tuttle.
