‘Mike And Buff’
First, for those of you who think of Mike Wallace only as ‘The 60 Minutes guy’, remember he got his start as an announcer, and even as a talk show host, along with wife #1, Buff.
Second, in response to a recent post on the CBS color broadcasts, Mark Vonder Embse noticed one of the shows broadcast was the ‘Mike and Buff’ show with Mike Wallace and then wife, Buff Cobb. Here is a 1951 publicity photo of them Mark sent. Thanks!
Just checked. Chris Wallace’s mother was Norma…Mike’s first wife. Buff was Mike’s second wife.
That must be Chris’ mother.
Mike Wallace looks like he’s 15.
