No, I'm not a distant relative of Art's. But I remember him fondly as the host of "You Asked for It" back in the early 1950's which I watched regularly. And a real joy was the occasional instance of Art suddenly appearing in a televised movie I happened to be watching, at which point I would sit up and proclaim--even if only to myself--"That's Art Baker!" Over the years since then he has not strayed far from my mind, and it was just now--in 2014--I googled him. So here I am, Art. You're not forgotten.
