"Pincus Leff (May 2, 1907, Saint Paul, Minnesota - April 3, 1993, Mission
Viejo, California), better known as Pinky Lee, was a burlesque comic and
host of a children's television program, The Pinky Lee Show, in the early
1950s.

Easily recognized by his trademark lisp and his high-energy antics, his
signature costume was a loud plaid suit with baggy checkered pants and an
undersized hat. During his routines, whenever anybody irritated him (which
happened frequently) he would unleash his catchphrase: "Oooooh! You make me
so mad!"

In 1955, Lee collapsed on camera due to an infection, and the show continued
without him until 1956. Rumors that Lee had died of a heart attack, prompted
by this incident, persisted for decades. Occasionally, newspapers carried
items mentioning the "late" Lee - even though he was performing at a dinner
theater in the same city as the reporting newspaper. The incident even
spawned rumors that Lee had been institutionalized after going insane on
live television..."
