The baby-faced, bug-eyed comedian with wild black hair who was a staple of TV variety shows, game shows and talk shows for decades has died of complications from pneumonia.
Marty Allen was known for this catch phrase “Hello dere.”…
Allen was a staple of night clubs and TV variety shows in the 1950s and 60s after finding fame as part of the duo Allen and Rossi. They split up amicably in 1968 and Allen took on a series of serious roles on daytime television and made-for-TV movies.
