Frankie Burke

Born: 6 June 1915, Brooklyn, New York, USA
Died: 7 April, 1983, Chapman, Kansas, USA

Frankie Burke could easily be mistaken for a young James Cagney at first glance and even played Cagney's younger self in Angels With Dirty Faces (1938).  This was the culmination of hard work as a Cagney impersonator on vaudeville.  Towards the end of his life Burke was homeless and chose to ride the rails until dying of lung cancer.
