Paul Edward Lynde (; June 13, 1926January 10, 1982) was an American comedian, voice artist, game show panelist and actor. A character actor with a distinctively campy and snarky persona that often poked fun at his barely closeted homosexuality, Lynde was well known for his roles as Uncle Arthur on "Bewitched," the befuddled father Harry MacAfee in "Bye Bye Birdie," and as a regular "center square" panelist on the game show "The Hollywood Squares" from 1968 to 1981. He also voiced animated characters for four Hanna-Barbera productions.
