My dear, dear friend. I miss Billy so much
I always loved Billy Barty. He was born 20 miles from my hometown. A wonderfully talented and nice man.
This man didn't need to be 6' tall to be a hero for the ages...& for all humanity.
Co-founding Little People of America with Anthony Rossitti was a legacy that outshines even his brilliance
as an entertainer. Then & now, he defines the term
"Superstar".
I met Billy Barty in 1992 at the RNC being held at the Astrodome in Houston, TX. Wonderful man..
Ross Perot? 😂
these people..like most of their generation knew how to be humble and act with class. We can all take a lesson from these people who knew they were blessed and very lucky to have such success
A kind man, it comes through in this program and in all his performances. He had a natural
quality which those with a full heart posess.
so enjoyed this what a lovely talented man
He was an angel on this earth. Miss him. I'm surprised I can't find anything on Ruth Delfino.
Wonderful star!
⭐💗🤩😍😁
He was always a hilarious actor in any movie or tv show. He
When I was 10, Billy Barty was at a carnival across the street from my house. He greeted me as if I were a close, personal friend and shook my hand. That's the kind of person he is.
My dad and his family lived across the street from the Barty’s in Milsboro, Pa.
A little person, but a giant of a man.
Billy Barty appeared in some episodes of "Peter Gunn". What a fine actor he was.
Billy was an amazing talent
Wow, what a down to earth little fella.
That flip he did was awesome! Thanks for posting.
Poor ol' Spike is already feeling the ravages of all those cigarettes...Those quick gasps for breath in mid-sentence; I recognize that all too well from watching my mother suffer...
Billy was an amazing comic actor, from the time he was a tyke...
That, and every time he fired a Pistol, into the Ceiling, Ten Pounds of Asbestos,, fell, into his Lungs.
He seemed like such a sweet man ❤
I really miss him and his wife.
Classy gentleman
This might be James Melton's last TV appearance, as he passed away the following year, and I can find no later appearances than this one. He was one of the greatest tenors of all time.
Kind of strange to see Mickey Rooney standing next to someone shorter than he is.
Thank you for sharing these rare This is Your Life episodes, do you by chance have the one profiling Steve Allen?
+Chris Johnson No I don't, sorry, but I'll try to locate one.
Billy is a lot taller than his stature.
Don Holland He was a giant in the entertainment industry
Just in case one would wonder, Billy wasn't married at this point. He would be married within two years.
Does anyone remember him on the Saturday Morning TV Show “Dr. Shrinker”?
Poor Bill..He'd have to be on this show.
Have you ever been able to find “Matthew Labyorteaux.” From Little House on the Prairie’’s episode?! I would really love to see it but haven’t found it!
Billy barty
Isn't Coach Newmeyer the father of Julie (Catwoman) Newmar?
I think u r right but I have not taken the time to wiki it yet, but I remember seeing a vid on her life and she came from a very athletic family.
Yep, he was. Good ole Wiki lol
Do people think the issue of Barty’s height was treated respectfully, or not? Interested to know, either way.
RIP,.Billy,the final Lollipop Kid that was surviving
Do you mean Lollipop Guild? Billy Barty did not appear in The Wizard of Oz.
My mother once remarked that if Mickey Rooney was my age, we would have made a good couple. Mr. Rooney was a bit too old for me, sorry to say.

Wow, Spike looked terrible at 49 years old. Thats what happens when you smoke 5 packs of unfiltered Camels a day for decades.
He's starting to gasp for breath here when he speaks. Painful to watch.
Amazing how italaians had to hide their name.
How much money did Billy Barty have when he died
