“A Day in the Life of a Dinosaur” Starring Phil Foster as “Bronty” on Golden Records

During the 1950s Foster made several comedy short subjects as “Brookyn’s Ambassador to the World”. Because of his popularity he was chosen by George Pal to be one of the military space crewman on a trip to Mars in “The Conquest in Space”. It was Garry Marshall, an old friend whom he helped get started as a comedy writer for Joey Bishop and other entertainers, who lured him again to Hollywood, first to appear in “The Odd Couple” and then to co-star as Frank DeFazio in “Lavern and Shirley.” He also worked in film, notably “Bang the Drum Slowly.” He also recorded a handful of live stand-up comedy albums. — Wikepedia
