Harry Wiere was born in Berlin, Germany, in 1906, into a family with a long history in show business. He was the eldest of three brothers. In 1922, he and his brothers, Herbert and Sylvester Wiere, formed The Wiere Brothers comedy act, performing in theaters and on stages. They first came to America in 1935 and stayed permanently from 1937 onward. The Wiere Brothers were a remarkably talented comedy team, skilled in playing multiple instruments, singing, dancing, and performing acrobatics, all while being highly entertaining. Their act headlined theater and nightclub circuits, and although they appeared in films, their comedic talents were underutilized. Their film debut was in Vogues of 1938 (1937). Two of their 1943 films, Swing Shift Maisie and Hands Across the Border, both claimed to "introduce the Wiere Brothers" to American audiences. Their dancing and musical routines are perhaps best showcased in Road to Rio (1947), starring Bob Hope and Bing Crosby. Their final film appearance was in Double Trouble (1967), featuring Elvis Presley. In 1960, CBS commissioned thirteen episodes of a television series starring the Wiere Brothers. The show, Oh! Those Bells (1962), was initially directed by Jules White, known for his work with the Three Stooges. It aired in the summer of 1962 but was not renewed beyond its first season. The Wiere Brothers continued performing in nightclubs and on television throughout the 1950s and 1960s until 1970, when Sylvester Wiere passed away. Following Sylvester's death, Harry and Herbert semi-retired but occasionally worked in television and on stage. Harry Wiere died in January 1992. As of 1996, Herbert Wiere was semi-retired and living in California.
