Joe Yule on AllMovie

Scottish actor Joe Yule had a long career as a burlesque and vaudeville performer before joining MGM in the late '30s to play character roles. He was often loaned out to other studios. Eventually Yule ended up at Monogram studios playing the cartoon character Jiggs in the Jiggs and Maggie series of B-movies. Yule's most enduring contribution to cinema may be that he fathered beloved actor Mickey Rooney.
