Career

Ross was born in New York City on March 15, 1914, to Jewish immigrant parents. He dropped out of Seward Park High School to work as a singing waiter at the Van Cortlandt Inn in the Bronx at the age of 16. Ross was promoted to announcer when the cafe welcomed a female dancer and singer. He made some parody and became a comedian.

In 1938, he appeared on the Queens Terrace, just north of Jackson Heights, New York. Jackie Gleason had already been playing for 16 weeks, and the boss was going to tell Gleason to wait a few weeks longer. Ross heard of the audition, auditioned for it, got the job, and then stayed for 16 weeks. He then became a burlesque comic on the Schuster circuit out of Chicago.

World War II interrupted his career. He served in the United States Army Air Corps at Camp Blanding, Florida, before being stationed in England.

Ross, who was dissatisfied at the war's end, became an announcer-comic at Billy Gray's Band Box in Hollywood. He maintained his links to burlesque and appeared in Irving Klaw's feature-length dramatic film Teaserama (1955), a re-creation of a burlesque performance.

Ross started working at Ciro's, a nightclub in Miami Beach, in 1955. He was discovered by Nat Hiken and Phil Silvers, who were arranging You'll Never Get Rich (later known as The Phil Silvers Show and occasionally Sgt. Bilko) and adored Ross' comedy abilities. Rupert Ritzik, the mess sergeant, was hired on the spot and starred as the mess sergeant.

Ross made Ritzik memorable. Ritzik's plans were a natural indicator of Bilko's plans, as shown by his henpecked, dumb, and starvation. If Ritzik had a sudden urge, he'd hesitate and stammer "ooh!"

Ooh!"

He suggested that you consider it before expressing your opinion. The actor's rage when he couldn't remember his lines made him crack the script. The silvers will deliberately drift from the scripted conversation and give Ross the incorrect cues, sparking a genuinely confused reaction and a agonized "Ooh!"

Ooh!"

Ross has a website. "I knew it!" Ross said often on the program.

I knew it!

"Every time he lost money on a gambling bet he had been hesitant to make," he said. Ritzik was jinxed against any bet made with Bilko, which set off a running joke.Where Are You? After the Phil Silvers Show ended in 1959, Nat Hiken went on to produce Car 54. Tom Ross, a patrolman from New York's 53rd Precinct, is cast in Ross. Fred Gwynne, another Bilko smear, appeared on Toody's companion, Francis Muldoon. Toody could usually be counted on at some point to say, "Ooh!" says the narrator.

Ooh!

", or "Do you mind?

Is it true?" says the author. Ross became so familiar with his service that he produced "Love Songs from a Cop" as his "love" album was released. In 1964, Roulette Records issued the LP. Ross appeared as Toody on Hanna-Barbera's Wait Till Your Father Gets Home, in which Toody and Muldoon moonlights are on a day care center, and one of the children is missing.

Ross appeared in Sherwood Schwartz' ill-fated 1966 sitcom It's About Time, which starred two 1960s American astronauts who were sent back in time to the prehistoric period.

Steve Rossi teamed with Ross for less than three months after the breakup of Allen & Rossi in 1968. Rossi & Rossi appeared on Ed Sullivan and disbanded in January 1969, although they did not disbanded in January 1969.

Ross also played the stereotypical bumbling sergeant in several cartoons, including Hong Kong Phooey (as Sgt.) Flint (Mexico) & Assistance!

It's the Hair Bear Bunch!

Botch (as Botch) is a botch. He also appeared on Roll in the CB Bears segment Shake, Rattle, and Roll.

His "Ooh!

Ooh!"

In the animated series Fangface and Norm Prescott as Theodore H. Bear, he was imitated by Frank Welker in The New Adventures of Mighty Mouse and Heckle and Jeckle's Quacula episodes. He was also one of the few white comedians with Laff Records, which specialized in African-American comedians and released his album Should Lesbians Be Allowing to Play Pro-Football?
