It is not necessary to play the Anthems at strictly social functions or at formal luncheons and dinners, as awkward situations and inconveniences may result. It is not the custom in Washington to play the Anthems at State Dinners. When the Anthems are played, it is customary to play the Anthem of the Visitor's country first and the Anthem of the United States second. When the flags of the United States and the Visitor's country are used consider the area where the flags are to be placed as a stage or a focal point, then place the flag of the United States on the left as viewed from the audience, and the flag of the Visitor's country on the right.

This is the first time Grey has performed at the White House. Singer-dancer-actor Grey won the Academy Award as Best Supporting Actor in 1972 for his performance in "Cabaret. " Other honors stemming from that performance came from the National Association of Theatre Owners, which named him "Musical Star of the Year;" the National Society of Film Critics and the National Board of Review, which named him "Best Supporting Actor;" and the Foreign Press Corps' Golden Globe Award. He has also been cited for his performances in the New York musical eorge (M! " and his dramatic portrayal of a clairvoyant in the movie "Man on a Swing. 11 He also appears regularly on various television shows. Grey was born in 1932 in Cleveland, Ohio. He started performing at age 10, debuting as "Pud" in "On Borrowed Time" at The Cleveland Playhouse. His family moved to Los Angeles, and he continued to perform on weekends during his high school years with his father, Comedian Mickey Katz. He was also featured by the late Eddie Cantor in the television series, the Colgate Comedy Hour. He began a series of nightclub performances across the country at age 19, including a headline engagement at the Copacabana in New York. He joined the Neighborhood Playhouse in New York to study with Sanford Meisner and Wynn Handman and began television performances, winning national attention for his title role in the NBC Special "Jack and the Beanstalk. 11 He also appeared in three films.

FOR INMEDIATE RELEASE DECEMBER 5, 1974 OFFICE OF THE WHITE HOUSE PRESS SECRETARY THE WHITE HOUSE EXCHANGE OF TOASTS BETWEEN THE PRESIDENT AND HELMUT SCHMIDT CHANCELLOR OF THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF GERMANY THE STATE FLOOR 10:00 P.M. EST THE PRESIDENT: Mr. Chancellor, it is a great privilege and a pleasure for me and our people to have you and your Foreign Secretary, Mr. Genscher, and the others from your party visiting us in Washington on this occasion. We, of course, feel that this gathering is a reaffirmation of the longstanding friendship of your people as well as ours, your government as well as ours, a friend- ship that has a very broad base in military security, economic relations, people to people relations. Of course, the pages of history in the United States are filled with contributions made over the 200 years of our Nation's history, contributions made by people from your country. It goes back as far as Baron Von Steuben, who was probably the finest military training officer, as well as fighting officer, who took a pretty ragged American outfit at Valley Forge and made it capable and competent to meet the challenges in the next spring. And, of course, Abraham Lincoln had a very out- standing German who was a member of his Cabinet, who contributed significantly to our history in that day and that era. Of course, the contribution by people from Germany to our country also includes the arts, it includes science, it includes literature, and, as Larry Brown and I know, there are some outstanding Germans who have contributed to our proficiency in athletics, one who may come to mind for some of us in the older age group. MORE GENATO FORD Page 2 Lou Gehrig was probably a legendary baseball player in our athletic history and his ancestry, of course, was that of your country. But with the people who have helped to make America great, and those that are working with us today in the field of the military, the economic areas, the rapport I think is good for not only each of us but for the world at large. Twenty-five years of your history has been a period of 25 years of close personal relationship to the United States, and vice versa. We seem to have the same philosophical views, the same ideological opinions as to how you can move ahead. We tend to subscribe in America to the views of one of Germany's greatest minds, one of the world's greatest -- I am told, as I read history -- Goethe: He once wrote that we can only earn our freedom and our existence by struggling for it every day. For 25 years, day in and day out, the Federal Republic and the United States have worked together for a freer, better world in a spirit of mutual friendship and great mutual respect. So, it is my privilege, Mr. Chancellor, in the spirit of our friendship and cooperation and mutual interest, to offer a toast to you and all that you embody and that of your great country. To the Chancellor and to the Federal Republic and its people. CHANCELLOR SCHMIDT: Mr. President, Mrs. Ford, ladies and gentlemen: I would like to thank you, Mr. President, for the kind and warm words you have addressed to my party and to me. I think one of the two of us has to confess to this distinguished gatheringthat, despite the fact that we did not intend to solve any bilateral problems between ourselves, because we don't have any bilateral problems (Laughter) nevertheless we did make a bilateral agreement just tonight insofar as we agreed to put away the speeches which were made for us. (Laughter) And so, the President did and I am going to do it, but we allowed for just one quotation from the speeches. You will later on detect me, or observe me looking to my paper once, but before so doing, I would like to point out that I think you were especially generous, Mr. President, in talking of the last 25 years of our really very good and ever-improving relationship, a relationship between your great country and ours. MORE SECURITY FORD NEW Page 3 You were very gracious not to mention periods of history before that --- I will not dig into it. But: I would like to say that my compatriots and I, myself, we are really thankful for the great help which we have received from your people immediately after the war and that we also are thankful for having had your assistance, your standing firm on matters vital for our own sake; for instance, for your standing firm on Berlin all these years. You have just come back to the United States from a meeting with the number one man of the Soviet Union. From what I understand from your report to us, you have clearly added one step further in the policy of bringing about balance in the world and the stability of that balance; and bringing about detente, if you wish to call it that, a policy which we have followed, both of our nations, both of our governments, parallel to each other, as we have all these long decades followed in common the policy of making ourselves capable, if need should arise, to defend ourselves against threats or pressures from outside. It seems to me that so far. we have been very successful together with our other partners within the Atlantic Alliance. In the meantime, new problems have come up which we did not foresee ten years ago -- referring to the Middle East or referring to the oil price explosion -- I think one might call it an explosion -- and all our economies so far have not adapted to that enormous change, whether it is in the field of real incomes, whether that is in the field of balance of payments, whether it is in the field of aggravating the process of inflation. We have talked at length today, and also your Secretaries and aides and my party have talked at length about economic problems. We have exchanged our analyses, we have exchanged our attitudes, our plans for future actions, advice was given freely and taken from both sides -- this is thepoint where I have to look to my paper (Laughter) -- because I wrote down in my own hand- writing a little quote. I think it is from some American. He is not as famous as Goethe. Nevertheless, it reads: "Free advice is the kind that costs you nothing unless you act upon it." (Laughter) So, I warn you, Mr. President, to be careful in acting upon our advice, and we will be careful on our side as well. MORE SEAL FORD Page 4 But coming back to a more serious aspect of the matter, I think I could say on behalf of my party, especially my colleague Genscher, and the rest, that we were very thankful for this free exchange of analyses and talks and of the plans we might put into operation in the next time, because we do really feel that your great country, five times as big -- I mean in economic size -- than ours, and our second biggest in terms of foreign trade, we do really feel that both our responsibilities, vis-a-vis the world's economy as a whole and the other partners in the free world economy, request from us that we try as much as one can to coordinate our economic policies as we have coordinated our defense policies, as we have coordinated our detente policies, as we tried to coordinate our policies all over the globe. Now, at this present stage I think in the economic field there lies a great part of our faith, not only of your people, also of ours, also of other people. If the economic future becomes bleak and uncertain, economic uncertainty and economic failure can lead to economic unrest not only, but also social unrest and also domestic political unrest in a number of countries, not in the first instance in the United States of America, not in the first instance cf our country, but we might be infected in the course of time. I think all my compatriots heard with great satisfaction what you said this afternoon about you would not permit an aggravation of the downward trend of the economy, which at present is characterizing all our economies. I am not going to too much dig into that field. I only wanted -- using this as an example, the economic exercise of ours as an example -- to express again, sir, our gratitude for this really free, and frank, and candid exchange of views and to express our gratitude for the endeavor on both sides to coordinate and harmonize our policies which, in fact, does not mean that both of our parts have to exactly operate along the same lines, but means that we will have to follow complementary policies in order to achieve the same goal that we have in common. Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to rise and drink to the President of the United States and our charming hostess. END (AT 10:14 P.M.

It might be of interest to note that Mr. and Mrs. Grey headed the west coast Committee To Free the Panovs a committee composed of members of the arts and organized nearly a year ago to protest Russia's treatment of Valery and Galina Panov, the famed Russian ballet dancers. Due in part to their efforts here on the west coast and of those celebrities supporting the cause, Mr. and Mrs. Clive Barnes in New York, and Sir Lawrence Olivier in London, the Panovs were finally freed and are now residing in Israel. And as a matter of fact, Joel is co-hosting the "Mike Douglas Show" this week and the Panovs are his guests. Other honors received by Joel Grey this past year include the "Father of the Year" award along with then-Vice President Gerald R. Ford and others, an honorary Doctorate of Letters degree from Cleveland State University, and the Israel Cultural Award from the Israel Bonds Asso- ciation.

CALIFORNIA Broadway On February 24 at the Palace Theatre in New York, Joel Grey will return to Broadway in Goodtime Charley" a-musical set in the era of Joan of Arc in which he will play Charles Valois, the Dauphin, who later became Charles VII King of France I decided on this musical,' says Grey "because for the first time the story of the Dauphin and Joan will be told from his viewpoint. History regards him as a dolt and a retard but the truth is that he was a terribly shy young man who went on to become a tremendous leader of France, because of the love and strength he got from Joan. It's a love story with music." For his outstandingly brilliant performance in "Cabaret," Joel won the Academy Award as Best Supporting Actor in 1972. He was also honored with the Foreign Press Corps' Golden Globe, the National Society of Film Critics' and National Board of Review's Best Supporting Actor Awards, and caused the National Association of Theatre Owners to name him Musical Star of the Year. He won the British Society of Film and TV Arts Most Promising New- comer to Films Award (The British Oscar), the All-American Press named him Best Actor in a Musical, and BOXOFFICE magazine gave him their coveted Star of Tomorrow Award. As a follow-up to this award-winning performance, Grey displayed his versatility by starring as Franklin Wills, a clairvoyant, in Para- mount Pictures' "Man On A Swing." The critical response to his dramatic/cinematic debut was unanimously enthusiastic as witnessed by the following: Make JAY COCKS, TIME: "A performance of such thorough excitement of such menacing subcurrents, so shrewdly and subtly conveyed, that it galvanizes the entire film 11 reference no PAULINE KAEL, NEW YORKER: "The picture, however, has a creepy, volatile to performance by Joel Grey, as the man who says he's clairvoyant, and reviews it's pure gold. Grey proves that he's an actor and a star, you can't take your eyes off him, and you don't want to." CHARLES CHAMPLIN, LOS ANGELES TIMES: As 'Cabaret' made abundantly evident, Grey is a fine dramatic actor and he here gives a perfor. mance of such complexity (hinting of depths beyond depths) and energy that he almost overwhelms = LIBRARY (more ) 598 MADISON AVENUE NEW YORK. N.Y. 10022 PLAZA 9-6272 CABLE ADDRESS: ROCOPUB NEW YORK The same critics who lauded his dazzling performances as the decadent Master of Ceremonies in "Cabaret" and the clairvoyant Franklin Wills. have been equally excited over his return to the nightclub stage pointing out: HOWARD KISSEL, WOMEN'S WEAR DAILY: "One of the few genuine stars in recent years is Joel Grey, who made his New York nightclub debut Tuesday at the Waldorf's Empire Room. He is dynamite!" TIME MAGAZINE: "Nightclubs are coming back. One good reason is the fast-footed singer-dancer, Joel Grey." BRUCE SINCLAIR, CUE MAGAZINE: "I have never seen a more exciting per- former on a nightclub stage than Joel Grey if there were an Oscar or Tony for nightclub performers, Joel Grey would win hands down." JOHN L. WASSERMAN, SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE: "A more graceful, enchanting, impeccably professional act mply does not exist." Grey has been consistent in earning the respect of critics and the approval of audiences since he broke into show business at the age of ten making his acting debut as Pud in "On Borrowed Time" at The Cleveland Playhouse. As one critic stated, "I can only say that the boy is phenomenal. He is as completely at home on the stage without being in the slightest degree precocious as any child I have ever seen." He knew then that he was "hooked." But his father, comedian Mickey Katz, insisted he continue school. He graduated from Alexander Hamilton High in Los Angeles and on weekends during his student years, was allowed to appear in his father's stage revues. About this same time, he was featured by the late Eddie Cantor in Cantor's famous "Colgate Comedy Hour" television shows. A series of nightclub appearances across country followed, including a headline engagement at New York's famed Copacabana when he was just 19. His fast-growing reputation as an entertainer of the first rank became an international one with his appearance at the London Palladium. Through Strong these years of playing the nightclub circuit, Grey developed a lasting aversion to the lonely and disillusioning life of the cafe entertainer. Ironically, this training was to prove most valuable in later years in his creation of the debauched Master of Ceremonies in the stage and film versions of "Cabaret." However, at the time, his aversion was strong enough to make him give up nightclubs entirely and return to his original commitment, the theatre. He joined the Neighborhood Playhouse to study with Sanford Meisner and later worked with Wynn Handman. (Page -2-) -3- His consumate versatility attracted offers in all media of show business. In television, Grey played everything from psychopathic killers to juvenile delinquents, western bandits to rock 'n roll singers, and in shows ranging from Maverick to "December Bride". He also starred in and won national attention for his performance in the title role on the NBC Special, "Jack and the Beanstalk". and was seen m During these years, Grey appeared in three films: "About Face," Broadway in the Phoenix Theatre's "Littlest Revue," in which also introduced "Calypse Heat Wave" and "Come September, and was seen off- he co-starred with Tammy Grimes. He was next seen on stage in what he refers to as his "replace- ment era". Grey took over for Warren Berlinger in Neil Simon's "Come Blow Your Horn"; next he was chosen to play the Anthony Newley role in the National Touring Company of "Stop The World," subsequently replacing Mr. Newley on Broadway. He substituted for Tommy Steele in "Half A Sixpence" during Steele's vacation then continued his stage career on his own in such productions as the Ronald Ribman play, "Harry, Noon and Night," appearing with Dustin Hoffman at the American Place Theatre. In several seasons of summer stock, he starred in "West Side Story,' "Finian's Rainbow" and "Tom Sawyer" Like most actors with a promising career, Grey was waiting for that special role that puts one on top. In the interim, me appeared in "Mardi Gras" at the Marine Theatre in Jones Beach. He calls this "the summer of my discontent". Little did he know waiting It wasin came when 196 Hal Prince called to tell him he was signed that right around the that corner was the break for which he had been for the role that of the M.C. in "Cabaret". His critically-acclaimed performance won him the 1967 Antoinette Perry ("Tony") Award as Best Supporting Actor in a Broadway Musical, as well as the Outer Circle Critics Award and the Variety Critics Award. In 1969, he followed his dazzling "Cabaret" success as star of the New York musical hit, "George M!" His portrayal of the Yankee Doodle Dandy Song-and-Dance Man won him the Variety Critics Award as Best Actor and his second Tony nomination. Following a year's run on Broadway, he starred in a six-month FORD A LIBRARY tour of key cities, which grossed approximately $2,500, 000. Upon completion of the tour, he made guestar appearances on most major shows including, among others, "Ironside," "Night Gallery, -4- the "CBS Friday Night Movie," "The Burt Bacharach Show," "The Tom Jones Show," "The Engelbert Humperdink Show "The Carol Burnett Show" and The Julie Andrews Hour". He also repeated his portrayal of George M. Cohan in the highly-rated and acclaimed NBC Special, George M!" and this past year headlined the A.G.V.A. Entertainer of the Year Awards special.

EST\nTHE PRESIDENT: Mr. Chancellor, it is a great\nprivilege and a pleasure for me and our people to have\nyou and your Foreign Secretary, Mr. Genscher, and the\nothers from your party visiting us in Washington on this\noccasion.\nWe, of course, feel that this gathering is a\nreaffirmation of the longstanding friendship of your people\nas well as ours, your government as well as ours, a friend-\nship that has a very broad base in military security,\neconomic relations, people to people relations.\nOf course, the pages of history in the United States\nare filled with contributions made over the 200 years of\nour Nation's history, contributions made by people from\nyour country.\nIt goes back as far as Baron Von Steuben,\nwho was probably the finest military training officer,\nas well as fighting officer, who took a pretty ragged\nAmerican outfit at Valley Forge and made it capable and\ncompetent to meet the challenges in the next spring.\nAnd, of course, Abraham Lincoln had a very out-\nstanding German who was a member of his Cabinet, who\ncontributed significantly to our history in that day and\nthat era.\nOf course, the contribution by people from\nGermany to our country also includes the arts, it includes\nscience, it includes literature, and, as Larry Brown and I\nknow, there are some outstanding Germans who have\ncontributed to our proficiency in athletics, one who may\ncome to mind for some of us in the older age group.\nMORE\nGENATO FORD\nPage 2\nLou Gehrig was probably a legendary baseball\nplayer in our athletic history and his ancestry, of course,\nwas that of your country. But with the people who have\nhelped to make America great, and those that are working\nwith us today in the field of the military, the\neconomic areas, the rapport I think is good for not only\neach of us but for the world at large.\nTwenty-five years of your history has been a\nperiod of 25 years of close personal relationship to the\nUnited States, and vice versa.\nWe seem to have the same philosophical views, the\nsame ideological opinions as to how you can move ahead.\nWe tend to subscribe in America to the views of one of\nGermany's greatest minds, one of the world's greatest --\nI am told, as I read history -- Goethe: He once wrote\nthat we can only earn our freedom and our existence by\nstruggling for it every day.\nFor 25 years, day in and day out, the Federal\nRepublic and the United States have worked together for\na freer, better world in a spirit of mutual friendship and\ngreat mutual respect.\nSo, it is my privilege, Mr. Chancellor, in the\nspirit of our friendship and cooperation and mutual interest,\nto offer a toast to you and all that you embody and that\nof your great country.\nTo the Chancellor and to the Federal Republic\nand its people.\nCHANCELLOR SCHMIDT: Mr. President, Mrs. Ford,\nladies and gentlemen:\nI would like to thank you, Mr. President, for\nthe kind and warm words you have addressed to my party\nand to me. I think one of the two of us has to confess to\nthis distinguished gatheringthat, despite the fact that we\ndid not intend to solve any bilateral problems between\nourselves, because we don't have any bilateral problems\n(Laughter) nevertheless we did make a bilateral agreement\njust tonight insofar as we agreed to put away the speeches\nwhich were made for us. (Laughter)\nAnd so, the President did and I am going to do\nit, but we allowed for just one quotation from the\nspeeches. You will later on detect me, or observe me\nlooking to my paper once, but before so doing, I would\nlike to point out that I think you were especially\ngenerous, Mr. President, in talking of the last 25 years\nof our really very good and ever-improving relationship,\na relationship between your great country and ours.\nMORE\nSECURITY FORD NEW\nPage 3\nYou were very gracious not to mention periods\nof history before that --- I will not dig into it. But:\nI would like to say that my compatriots and I, myself,\nwe are really thankful for the great help which we have\nreceived from your people immediately after the war and\nthat we also are thankful for having had your assistance,\nyour standing firm on matters vital for our own sake;\nfor instance, for your standing firm on Berlin all these\nyears.\nYou have just come back to the United States from a\nmeeting with the number one man of the Soviet Union.\nFrom what I understand from your report to us, you have\nclearly added one step further in the policy of bringing\nabout balance in the world and the stability of that balance;\nand bringing about detente, if you wish to call it that, a\npolicy which we have followed, both of our nations,\nboth of our governments, parallel to each other, as we have\nall these long decades followed in common the policy of\nmaking ourselves capable, if need should arise, to defend\nourselves against threats or pressures from outside.\nIt seems to me that so far. we have been very\nsuccessful together with our other partners within the\nAtlantic Alliance. In the meantime, new problems have\ncome up which we did not foresee ten years ago --\nreferring to the Middle East or referring to the oil price\nexplosion -- I think one might call it an explosion --\nand all our economies so far have not adapted to that\nenormous change, whether it is in the field of real\nincomes, whether that is in the field of balance of\npayments, whether it is in the field of aggravating the\nprocess of inflation.\nWe have talked at length today, and also your\nSecretaries and aides and my party have talked at length\nabout economic problems. We have exchanged our analyses,\nwe have exchanged our attitudes, our plans for future\nactions, advice was given freely and taken from both\nsides -- this is thepoint where I have to look to my\npaper (Laughter) -- because I wrote down in my own hand-\nwriting a little quote.\nI think it is from some American. He is not as\nfamous as Goethe. Nevertheless, it reads: \"Free advice\nis the kind that costs you nothing unless you act upon\nit.\" (Laughter)\nSo, I warn you, Mr. President, to be careful in\nacting upon our advice, and we will be careful on our\nside as well.\nMORE\nSEAL FORD\nPage 4\nBut coming back to a more serious aspect of\nthe matter, I think I could say on behalf of my party,\nespecially my colleague Genscher, and the rest, that we were\nvery thankful for this free exchange of analyses and\ntalks and of the plans we might put into operation in the\nnext time, because we do really feel that your great\ncountry, five times as big -- I mean in economic size --\nthan ours, and our second biggest in terms of foreign\ntrade, we do really feel that both our responsibilities,\nvis-a-vis the world's economy as a whole and the other\npartners in the free world economy, request from us that\nwe try as much as one can to coordinate our economic\npolicies as we have coordinated our defense policies, as\nwe have coordinated our detente policies, as we tried to\ncoordinate our policies all over the globe.\nNow, at this present stage I think in the\neconomic field there lies a great part of our faith,\nnot only of your people, also of ours, also of other\npeople.\nIf the economic future becomes bleak and uncertain,\neconomic uncertainty and economic failure can lead to\neconomic unrest not only, but also social unrest and\nalso domestic political unrest in a number of countries,\nnot in the first instance in the United States of America,\nnot in the first instance cf our country, but we might be\ninfected in the course of time.\nI think all my compatriots heard with great\nsatisfaction what you said this afternoon about you\nwould not permit an aggravation of the downward trend of\nthe economy, which at present is characterizing all\nour economies.\nI am not going to too much dig into that field.\nI only wanted -- using this as an example, the economic\nexercise of ours as an example -- to express again, sir,\nour gratitude for this really free, and frank, and\ncandid exchange of views and to express our gratitude\nfor the endeavor on both sides to coordinate and harmonize\nour policies which, in fact, does not mean that both\nof our parts have to exactly operate along the same lines,\nbut means that we will have to follow complementary policies\nin order to achieve the same goal that we have in common.\nLadies and gentlemen, I would like to rise and\ndrink to the President of the United States and our\ncharming hostess.\nEND\n(AT 10:14 P.M.

He is dynamite!\"\nTIME MAGAZINE: \"Nightclubs are coming back. One good reason is the\nfast-footed singer-dancer, Joel Grey.\"\nBRUCE SINCLAIR, CUE MAGAZINE: \"I have never seen a more exciting per-\nformer on a nightclub stage than Joel Grey if there were an Oscar\nor Tony for nightclub performers, Joel Grey would win hands down.\"\nJOHN L. WASSERMAN, SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE: \"A more graceful,\nenchanting, impeccably professional act mply does not exist.\"\nGrey has been consistent in earning the respect of critics and the\napproval of audiences since he broke into show business at the age\nof ten making his acting debut as Pud in \"On Borrowed Time\" at The\nCleveland Playhouse. As one critic stated, \"I can only say that\nthe boy is phenomenal. He is as completely at home on the stage\nwithout being in the slightest degree precocious as any child I\nhave ever seen.\"\nHe knew then that he was \"hooked.\" But his father, comedian Mickey\nKatz, insisted he continue school. He graduated from Alexander\nHamilton High in Los Angeles and on weekends during his student years,\nwas allowed to appear in his father's stage revues. About this same\ntime, he was featured by the late Eddie Cantor in Cantor's famous\n\"Colgate Comedy Hour\" television shows.\nA series of nightclub appearances across country followed, including\na headline engagement at New York's famed Copacabana when he was just\n19. His fast-growing reputation as an entertainer of the first rank\nbecame an international one with his appearance at the London Palladium.\nThrough Strong these years of playing the nightclub circuit, Grey developed\na lasting aversion to the lonely and disillusioning life of the cafe\nentertainer. Ironically, this training was to prove most valuable\nin later years in his creation of the debauched Master of Ceremonies\nin the stage and film versions of \"Cabaret.\"\nHowever, at the time, his aversion was strong enough to make him give\nup nightclubs entirely and return to his original commitment, the\ntheatre. He joined the Neighborhood Playhouse to study with Sanford\nMeisner and later worked with Wynn Handman.\n(Page -2-)\n-3-\nHis consumate versatility attracted offers in all media of show\nbusiness.\nIn television, Grey played everything from psychopathic killers\nto juvenile delinquents, western bandits to rock 'n roll singers,\nand in shows ranging from Maverick to \"December Bride\". He\nalso starred in and won national attention for his performance\nin the title role on the NBC Special, \"Jack and the Beanstalk\".\nand was seen m\nDuring these years, Grey appeared in three films: \"About Face,\"\nBroadway in the Phoenix Theatre's \"Littlest Revue,\" in which also introduced\n\"Calypse Heat Wave\" and \"Come September, and was seen off-\nhe co-starred with Tammy Grimes.\nHe was next seen on stage in what he refers to as his \"replace-\nment era\". Grey took over for Warren Berlinger in Neil Simon's\n\"Come Blow Your Horn\"; next he was chosen to play the Anthony\nNewley role in the National Touring Company of \"Stop The World,\"\nsubsequently replacing Mr. Newley on Broadway. He substituted\nfor Tommy Steele in \"Half A Sixpence\" during Steele's vacation\nthen continued his stage career on his own in such productions\nas the Ronald Ribman play, \"Harry, Noon and Night,\" appearing\nwith Dustin Hoffman at the American Place Theatre. In several\nseasons of summer stock, he starred in \"West Side Story,' \"Finian's\nRainbow\" and \"Tom Sawyer\"\nLike most actors with a promising career, Grey was waiting for\nthat special role that puts one on top. In the interim, me\nappeared in \"Mardi Gras\" at the Marine Theatre in Jones Beach.\nHe calls this \"the summer of my discontent\". Little did he know\nwaiting It wasin came when 196 Hal Prince called to tell him he was signed\nthat right around the that corner was the break for which he had been\nfor the role that of the M.C. in \"Cabaret\". His critically-acclaimed\nperformance won him the 1967 Antoinette Perry (\"Tony\") Award\nas Best Supporting Actor in a Broadway Musical, as well as the\nOuter Circle Critics Award and the Variety Critics Award.\nIn 1969, he followed his dazzling \"Cabaret\" success as star of\nthe New York musical hit, \"George M!\" His portrayal of the\nYankee Doodle Dandy Song-and-Dance Man won him the Variety\nCritics Award as Best Actor and his second Tony nomination.\nFollowing a year's run on Broadway, he starred in a six-month\nFORD A LIBRARY\ntour of key cities, which grossed approximately $2,500, 000.\nUpon completion of the tour, he made guestar appearances on most\nmajor shows including, among others, \"Ironside,\" \"Night Gallery,\n-4-\nthe \"CBS Friday Night Movie,\" \"The Burt Bacharach Show,\" \"The\nTom Jones Show,\" \"The Engelbert Humperdink Show \"The Carol\nBurnett Show\" and The Julie Andrews Hour\".
