Expand Full Bio
Old-time radio comedy writer Philip Rapp was known for having created the Bickersons (played by Don Ameche and Frances Langford) and Fanny Brice's Baby Snooks character. He was also on the writing staff for Eddie Cantor's network program. In film, Rapp signed to MGM and created scripts for a number of memorable musicals, including a few for Danny Kaye such as The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (1947) and The Wonder Man (1945). Rapp added movie directing to his talents when he took over writing and directing chores for the Topper television series. In addition, Rapp directed and wrote for the Hiram Holliday series that starred Wally Cox. Rapp died of natural causes in his Hollywood home.
