| abstract | - Ruth Buzzi is a retired American comedienne and screen and voice actress. She is well known for her performances on the variety-comedy show, Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In, from 1968 to 1973.
- Ruth Buzzi (born July 24, 1936) is an American theatre, film and television actress, who is known for her performances on Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In. Some of her Disney roles include Frou-Frou's singing voice in The Aristocats, the soprano voice in It's Tough to Be a Bird, the opposing coach in the 1976 version of Freaky Friday, Dr. Rheems in The North Avenue Irregulars, Mrs. Sweeney in the Rescue Rangers episode "Pie in the Sky", Old Tough Kate (a.k.a.

- Ruth Buzzi was born July 24, 1936, in South County (Westerly), Rhode Island, to Rena Pauline and Angelo Peter Buzzi, a nationally recognized stone sculptor. She was raised in Wequetequock, Connecticut, and attended Stonington High School. She gained experience as a cheerleader performing before crowds at athletic events. At 17, she enrolled at the Pasadena Playhouse for the Performing Arts; among her classmates were the immeasurable talents of Dustin Hoffman and Gene Hackman. She graduated with honors. Buzzi went on to act in a wide variety of revues throughout New England, and worked alongside other young and talented performers who were just beginning their careers at the time. They included Barbra Streisand, Joan Rivers, Dom DeLuise, Bernadette Peters and Carol Burnett. Buzzi came to national recognition when she teamed up with Dom DeLuise in an act in which he played an incompetent magician, and she was his "sidekick" named "Shakuntala", who never spoke but sported a wide grin. The audiences demanded more of them and they eventually played several major nighttime television variety shows including The Garry Moore Show (1958), The Entertainers with Carol Burnett, and Your Show of Shows (1950) with Imogene Coca. She was hired by Bob Fosse to perform in his then-wife Gwen Verdon's hit Broadway musical "Sweet Charity". During that time, Buzzi auditioned for and received a permanent place in Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In (1967), on which she played such diverse roles as deadpan old women such as the iconic Gladys Ormphby, southern belles and hookers. Other memorable characters include Busy-Buzzi, a Hollywood gossip columnist, and Doris Sidebottom, the hard-bitten drunk. In one sketch, she and Debbie Reynolds played inconsiderate flight attendants.
