Danny Webb
Actor · 1906 – 1983 · New York City, New York, USA
Danny Web was an American voice and film actor, active in Hollywood from 1935-1951. The son of a Hungarian-born furrier, by the time he arrived in Hollywood in 1935, he was already a seasoned radio comedian. A series of clever celebrity impersonations on the 'Burns & Allen' show led to gigs as a celebrity impersonator in Charles Mintz's Screen Gems cartoons. The short, bespectacled comic simultaneously worked at Columbia, Metro and, most importantly, for Warner Brothers. He worked in the US Army Signal Corps during WWII, and after returned to radio and local television.

Movie6.4AnimationComedyMickey is performing routine maintenance on his tugboat (with interference from a pelican) when a call comes on the radio that there's a sinking ship needing assistance. Sadly, Mickey's crew consists of Donald and Goofy, so getting underway to help is not easy. Goofy has to fight a boiler's door to get it stoked with coal (and when he succeeds, he overfills it) and Donald gets tangled up in the machinery. Not to mention that nobody casts off, so they drag half the dock along with them. The overworked boiler soon explodes.

But the night janitor, a real party-pooper, shows up, and all the mice scurry for cover.
