- Oliver Burgess Meredith (November 16, 1907 – September 9, 1997), known professionally as Burgess Meredith, was an American actor, director, producer, and writer in theater, film, and television. He won several Emmys, was the first male actor to win the Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actor twice, and was nominated for two Academy Award. Burgess was known for potraying as Mickey Goldmill in Rocky, Rocky II, Rocky III. He also starred in films such as Of Mice and Men, On Our Merry Way, In Harm's Way and Batman (1966)
- Burgess Meredith (born November 16, 1907— passed away September 9, 1997) was a talented American character actor known for many classic roles, among them trainer Mickey Goldmill in the Rocky film series (with Sylvester Stallone), Henry Bemis in the "Twilight Zone" episode "Time Enough at Last", and The Penguin in the original "Batman" series.
- Burgess Meredith portrayed The Penguin in the 1960s Batman series, as well as the 1966 film. Meredith's portrayal of the Penguin tied with Cesar Romero's Joker as the most frequent appearance of a villain on the show, and was in fact so popular that the writers always had an episode script featuring the Penguin ready whenever Meredith was available. His trademark "quacking" sound had been created to prevent the non-smoking Meredith from ruining takes by coughing whenever the frequently-smoking Penguin smoked.
- One of the truly great and gifted performers of the 20th century who often suffered lesser roles, Burgess Meredith was born in Cleveland in 1907 and educated in Amherst College in Massachusetts before joining Eva Le Gallienne's stage company in New York City in 1933. He became a favorite of dramatist Maxwell Anderson, premiering on film in the playwright's Winterset (1936). Burgess Meredith died at age 89 of Alzheimer's disease and melanoma in his home in Malibu, California, on September 9, 1997.
