Buzzer the Cat

Two actors of stage and screen, Jane Cowl and Fay Bainter, and actress/model Audrey Munson, each posing with “Buzzer” the cat. So who was this marvelous cat that so many people posed with? (and make no mistake, there are many photos from the ‘teens that include Buzzer) If I were to guess, I’d imagine that the cooperative and oh so photogenic Buzzer belonged to photographer Arnold Genthe. Very young in the photo, Fay Bainter (center) played Mrs. Gibbs in the classic 1940 film, Our Town.
