Biographical notes:
Charles "Tiny" Burnett (1888-1974) was a musician with the Pantages and Orpheum vaudeville circuits based in Seattle, Washington from 1908 to 1933. Born in St. Joseph, Missouri, Burnett moved to Tacoma, Washington in 1908. Later that same year, he was employed as the manager of the Lois Theatre in Seattle, owned and operated as part of the Pantages Circuit. During this period, both dramatic productions (for example, the Pantages Players stock company) and vaudeville programs were presented at the Lois. After 1933, Burnett worked on Hollywood film soundtracks before moving to Bremerton, Washington in 1941. Burnett then became a restaurateur, operating Tiny's Restaurant in Bremerton until around 1949.
