#Quote
1For years I auditioned for producers and directors who would fall on the floor laughing, but then I'd never hear from them again. Go ask them why I'm not working. Believe me, there's a lot more to working steadily than being a name and delivering the laughs. There's a certain--let's call it kowtowing--that I'm not prepared to do.
#Fact
1He was a lifelong Democrat.
2His first Hollywood contract was with Lippert in 1949.
3Was a semi-regular on the bucolic sitcom Green Acres (1965) as one-half of a bungling brother/sister carpenter team contracted to fix Eddie Albert and Eva Gabor's dilapidated farmhouse. Sid played Alf Monroe and Mary Grace Canfield played his sister Ralph.
4Appeared in flashbacks as Estelle Getty's late husband on episodes of The Golden Girls (1985).
5Is interred at Hillside Memorial Park in Culver City, California.
6Melton recalls the beginnings of his career, and discusses the movie, Lost Continent (1951), in the book, "A Sci-Fi Swarm and Horror Horde" (McFarland & Co., 2010), by Tom Weaver.
7His father, Isidore Meltzer, was a comedic actor in vaudeville and the Yiddish theater.
8Provided long-standing comic relief for Danny Thomas on his classic TV show as Charlie Halper, owner of the Copa Club where Danny performed. Eventually Pat Carroll was added to the cast playing Halper's wife Bunny. Frequently kidding with the press, he told reporters he got the part of Charlie because Sid was the only person Thomas could find that was homelier than he was.
9Younger brother of screenwriter Lewis Meltzer.
