Harpo Marx

Harpo Marx Harpo Marx American comedian (1888-1964) Arthur "Harpo" Marx (born Adolph Marx;[1] November 23, 1888 – September 28, 1964) was an American comedian and harpist, and the second-oldest of the Marx Brothers.[1] In contrast to the mainly verbal comedy of his brothers Groucho and Chico, Harpo's comic style was visual, being an example of vaudeville, clown and pantomime traditions. In all of his movie appearances, he wore a curly reddish blonde wig and did not speak,[2] instead blowing a horn[3] or whistling[4] to communicate. Marx frequently employed props[5] such as a horn cane constructed from a lead pipe, tape, and a bulbhorn.[6] Quick facts Born, Died ...
