Paul this is the granddaughter of your old friend Merwyn in Ottawa. My mother told me about your friendship with Merk, and she has an old photo of you, taken by Ken Grierson, that you might like to have. If you see this, please respond on here, and provide a way I can contact you.

This article is about me. I was born in. Toronto, Canada, January 17, 1932 . How do I go about correcting errors. There cannot be a dispute. The article refers to me. I am Paul Wayne. I don't think there can be a more primal source. I know when and where I was born: Western Hospital on Bathurst Street, Toronto Ontario, Canada, January 17, 1932. Would you like me to produce an original birth certificate? My mother's maiden name is Sophie Hollender. My father is Robert Weinberg. "Wayne" is my pen name. Further: My first work was a stage play, "Kiss Mama Goodbye," which was adapted for CBC Television. My second, "From Paradise, Direct," was written directly for TV, about a Jewish guardian angel whose superiors deploy him to Ireland. There he is mistaken for a leprechaun. Jackie Mason starred. George Tobias starred in a subsequent play for the same series. It was called, "Heir for a Shoestring." When I came to LA my first assignment was "My Living Doll," July Newmar and Bob Cummings' vehicle. Then "Many Happy Returns," with John McGiver and Eleanor Donahue. After that, two seasons (about a dozen episodes) of "Bewitched." I wrote "The King's Pirate" myself, adapted from "Against All Flags." I never met Aeneas MacKenzie and Joseph Hoffman, although my name appears as co-writer in the credit log. I became an American citizen 2000. Among others, you left out a couple of episodes I'd written for "My World and Welcome to It." Also "Lidsville." I'll write more as it occurs to me. --108.80.76.1 (talk) 23:31, 15 July 2014 (UTC) Further reference: The book, "Whose in the Goose Tonight: An Anecdotal History of Canadian Theatre," by Vernon Chapman - Publisher ECW Press, Released Sept.

I've fixed it, per a British Film Institute source. It only confirms the year and birthplace, but I trust you on the birthday. If you know of any printed public source that can verify that, it'd be preferable to only taking your word. InedibleHulk (talk) 05:02, 10 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Regarding Who's in the Goose Tonight?: An Anecdotal History of Canadian Theatre (not Whose), according to index, you are mentioned in pages 344–46. Can you scan the pages and then email them to me? If not, does the book mention your birthdate, and your other overlooked works? --George Ho (talk) 05:35, 16 July 2014 (UTC)Reply
