Biography

Tom Patricola was an American actor, dancer, and vaudevillian who spent five years (1923-28) as a leading comic in "George White's Scandals." Despite his stocky, muscular build, he excelled as an eccentric song-and-dance performer. He was especially renowned for his swift-footed rendition of the "Black Bottom," often performing alongside fellow dancer Ann Pennington. Eager to break into films, Tom later signed with Fox as a contract player. However, his movie career was somewhat inconsistent, mostly limited to two-reel comedy shorts for Educational. His few roles in higher-profile films, such as Louisiana Purchase (1941) and Rhapsody in Blue (1945), came well after his peak and were minor parts or cameos. Tom’s sister, Isabella, was a well-known vaudeville singer and violinist.
