His was a small, but memorable scene, because his encounter with Barney elicited the explanation to Andy that registering at the hotel as Barney Fife, M.D., was short for Barney Fife, Mayberry Deputy.<\/p>\n<p>Born Arthur Stanton Eric Johnson to parents Abraham Lincoln Johnson (an attorney) and Edythe Mackenzie (Goldberg) Johnson on January 29, 1929, Arte (a nickname sometimes reported to be derived from a playbill typo that billed him as Art E. Johnson) attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where he worked at the campus radio station with brother Coslough (later an Emmy-winning comedy writer) and was graduated with a degree in radio journalism in 1949.<\/p>\n<p>After graduation, Arte initially pursued an advertising career in Chicago, but soon moved to New York to take an entry-level job with Viking Press. On a lark at lunch one day, he auditioned for a role on Broadway in <em>Gentlemen Prefer Blondes <\/em>in late 1949 and got a small part (along with Mayberry&#8217;s Howard Morris and Reta Shaw).<\/p>\n<p>By the mid-1950s, Arte was staying busy in a wide variety of roles for New York-based TV shows and also was performing comedy in local nightclubs as well as in the Poconos.<\/p>\n<p>In 1955, Arte was a member of the cast of the Off-Broadway production of <em>The Shoestring Revue<\/em>. And in 1957, he was a replacement actor to play Ben Whitledge (the role originated on Broadway by Roddy McDowall) toward the end of the Broadway run of <em>No Time for Sergeants<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>His early TV performances ranged from single episodes in small parts in &#8220;The Danny Thomas Show&#8221; and &#8220;December Bride&#8221; to recurring roles, including four episodes as Stanley Schreiber in &#8220;It&#8217;s Always Jan&#8221; (1955-56) and seven episodes as Bascomb Bleacher Jr in &#8220;Sally&#8221; (1958).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h6><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span><\/h6>\n<div id=\"attachment_7009\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7009\" class=\"wp-image-7009 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/tagsrwc.com\/the_ebullet\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/ArteJohnsonClerk2-e1562274981965.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"494\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-7009\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">DOC YOU MEANT?&#8211;Andy and Barney Fife, M.D., checking in with Arte at their Raleigh hotel.<\/p><\/div>\n<h6><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">.<\/span><\/h6>\n<div id=\"post-896\">\n<div id=\"attachment_7004\" style=\"width: 257px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7004\" class=\"wp-image-7004 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/tagsrwc.com\/the_ebullet\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/ArteJohnsonBobHope-247x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"247\" height=\"300\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-7004\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">NO ONE WANTED TO NOT SEE NUTSY NAZIS!
