Comedy player of radio and early TV, Frank Nelson was, in his prime, one of the highest paid guest stars on network TV. He is best known as the annoying, tart-tongued clerk forever encountered by Jack Benny on radio and TV. Benny would see the back of the clerk, and say, "Excuse me."

Nelson was also known for playing Ralph Ramsey in the final season of "I Love Lucy". Ralph was married to Betty Ramsey, Lucy and Ethel's new Connecticut friend
