Hugh O'Connell
Hugh O'Connell, lived in Kaukauna, Wisconsin, in the early 1930s. The local newspaper ran a short notice in 1934, with his picture (I can't get it to be copied and pasted here) saying he was, at that time in 1934, starring in the acclaimed Broadway hit "The Milky Way". That local paper was called The Kaukauna Times.
