BILLY BARTY was born William John Bertanzetti on October 25, 1924 in Millsboro, Pennsylvania. He began performing at age three and began making pictures in 1927. He played Mickey Rooney's little brother in the "Mickey McGuire" comedy shorts series. He was equally adept in both comedy and drama, and generally gives an added zest to any production he is associated with. He founded the Little People of America in 1957 and the Billy Barty Foundation in 1975. He possessed an immense talent and energetic charm that added a much needed shot in the arm to many series and films. Billy Barty died at age 76 in WILLOW ^^

Great to hear from you again, Dog. It's been quite a while since you posted. I hope everything's OK with you. Oh, everything's dandy, thanks. Even when I don't post much, the ol' lurking watchDog keeps an eye on the threads.

I don't know of any women midgets on the screen. Do you? Debbie Lee Carington. Probably best known for her role in Total Recall (1990). Unfortunately, she passed away last year at age 58.

If memory serves me correctly, there is a scene in CHARLIE CHAN AT THE CIRCUS where the great detective has tea with a dwarf couple. As I recall, the Brasnos were more or less co-stars, serving as hero and heroine for the story.
