A popular radio performer who starred on the popular soap "Let George Do It," Bob Bailey was one of many rather anonymous actors to obtain starring roles during the leading man shortage in WWII Hollywood. Contracted by 20th Century Fox, Bailey's most prominent appearances came in two latter-day Laurel and Hardy comedies, Jitterbugs and The Dancing Masters (both 1943). Although dropped from the studio roster at the end of the war, he continued to play the occasional supporting roles well into the 1950s but stardom eluded him.
