Marty Ingels

Marty Ingels, born Martin Ingerman in Brooklyn, New York City, in 1936, was a comedian and actor who also wrote comedy sketches and later worked as a theatrical agent. A talent scout spotted him during his Army service, which led to an appearance on the quiz show Name That Tune, and he put his winnings toward study at the Pasadena Playhouse. His best known role was opposite John Astin in the ABC sitcom I'm Dickens, He's Fenster, which lasted a single season of thirty-two episodes. He went on to guest spots on The Dick Van Dyke Show and Bewitched, and did voice work as Autocat in Motormouse and Autocat, Beegle Beagle in The Great Grape Ape Show, and the title character in the animated Pac-Man series. His films included The Busy Body (1967) and If It's Tuesday, This Must Be Belgium (1969). From the 1970s he worked chiefly as an agent, representing actors in celebrity endorsement ads.
