  • Born As Harrold Jese Pereira De Faria Harold Peary Was Born in San
    Harold Peary, 1908-1985 Harold Peary: born as Harrold Jese Pereira de Faria Harold Peary was born in San Leandro, California, on July 25, 1908, the son of Portuguese immigrants. By the age of eleven, he was singing at local weddings and other events. He began his radio career as a thirteen year old singer billed as The Oakland Tribune’s Boy Caruso, and by 1928 he was a regular on San Francisco radio, featured on an NBC program called The Spanish Serenader. This was a role he parodied in the classic Gildersleeve episode, The Mystery Voice in which Gildersleeve becomes romantic Brazilian baritone Ri- cardo. In 1929 he had his own radio show and got his big break in 1935 when he was cast in the Fibber McGee and Molly Show as Throckmorton Gildersleeve. A busy actor in the 1930’s in 1935, he went to Chicago, making the rounds of many major programs. He was equally adept at comedy and drama, and he was adept at accents and dialect, and his vocal range was so flex- ible that he often played several parts in the same program. Around 1937 he began playing various characters on Fibber McGee and Molly, including Chinese laundry- man Wu Fu, and a blustery, stuffed shirt named Gildersleeve, the most pompous name writer Don Quinn could think of. Continuity and consistency were not considerations, so Peary played many variations on the Gildersleeve, who was occasionally known as George, but later settled into a permanent role as the McGees’ next door neighbor and adopted one of the most memorable names of radio, Throckmorton P.
