Don Adams (born "Donald James Yarmy" on
April 13, 1923 in New York City) is an American actor, best known for
his role as Maxwell Smart (Agent 86) in the TV sitcom Get Smart
(1965-1970), for which he also directed and wrote. Adams won three Emmy
Awards for his portrayal of Max.
He served with the USMC during World War II
and came down with malaria during the battle of Guadalcanal. He worked
as a comic and mimic, taking the stage-name of Adams after marrying
singer Adelaide Adams. His work on television began in 1954. After the
success of Get Smart his later efforts were less successful, including
the comedy series The Partners and three attempts to revive the Get
Smart series in the 1980s. He continued to make the majority of his
income from live work on stage and in clubs.
He also works as a voice actor. His first
work was in Tennessee Tuxedo and his Tales (1963-1966), but he is more
famous now as the voice of Inspector Gadget in the initial run of that
television series (1983-1985) and the Christmas Special as well as in
later reprises. He also attempted a sitcom comeback in Canada with Check
it Out! in 1985, but the show was not successful.
He has stated in interviews that his famous
"clippy" voice characterization was based on, and an exaggeration of,
the speaking style of actor William Powell.
He has
been married (and divorced) three times and has seven children.
[Added by PSP: Don Adams passed away on
Sunday September 25th, 2005. Our prayers go out to his family,
friends and fans.]
