and a total a-hole
they had a nightclub act together, my uncle left for Broadway about the same time Andy recorded “What It Was, Was Football” which launched his career
i never got the chance to meet the man, but my uncle thought highly of him to his death in 1991, so i’ll defer to his opinion
here’s a pic of Andy in the cast of The Lost Colony circa 1948, my uncle is the furthest guy on the right

Elinor Donahue, who was long rumored to have clashed personally with Andy Griffith, has nothing but kind things to say about her professional relationship with the star.
FWIW, she also was very complimentary of Frances Bavier. Donahue comes across as a very classy lady in this interview.
