Classic Film/Harpo Marx

Expert: Juli D. - 12/8/2008


Question
Hello Juli, I've watched movies for the last 50 years, including most if not all the Marx Brothers, and my question is: Is there a recording, radio, newsreel, or other of Harpo's voice?

Answer
Good day Charles!
         Yes, there have been a few recordings of Harpo's voice. If you go to youtube.com and search for Harpo Speaks, you will find several options to hear snippets of his voice. The best of these is from his autobiography. Otherwise, a query on your favorite search engine (google.com, ask.com, etc.) might also prove fruitful.
Hope this helped- if there's anything else I can do for you let me know. :0)
           Cheers!
                          ~J.

Expertise

I can answer almost any question relating to any of the Marx Brothers or their films. Their personal lives were, I believe, twice as interesting as their professional personas.

Experience

I have read many books on the subject including the memoirs of the two most famous Marx Brothers, Groucho and Harpo as well as "Growing up with Chico" the only book written expressly about Chico Marx. Also, I have done exstensive research on all of the brothers, my senior paper being on the subject of their lives.
