Jack Paar was an American author, movie actor, radio and television comedian, and talk show host. He was the popular second host of "The Tonight Show" from 1957 to 1962. Paar was drafted into the Army in 1943 during World War II, interrupting his tenure as host of WBEN's morning show "The Sun Greeter's Club". He was assigned to the U.S.O. in the South Pacific to entertain the troops. Paar was a clever, wisecracking master of ceremonies whose impersonations of officers nearly got him into trouble. He opted not to return to the WBEN at war's end, instead seeking opportunities in network radio and film.
