Biographical History
Sidney Easton was an actor, playwright and songwriter who performed in vaudeville, musicals, and films from the early 1910s to the 1950s. He formed a number of comedic acts and musical partnerships, including Easton and Easton (featuring Bob Ricketts and others), Easton and Baby Goins Joyce, Easton and (Jimmy) Stewart, and Easton and (Bert) Howell.
