Orson Bean, born Dallas Frederick Burroughs (July 22, 1928 in Burlington, Vermont), is an American film, television, and stage actor, as well as an author. He made numerous appearances on a variety of game shows in the 60's, 70's and 80's.
Bean is perhaps best known as a long-time panelist on the television game show To Tell the Truth, which provided a fitting forum for his affable wit.
On one To Tell the Truth episode in 1965, the panel was to try to guess which of three contestants was the real Harvard University Chief of Police, George Burroughs, who was Orson's father. The happily stunned Orson disqualified himself from the questioning.
