George Lovejoy Rockwell

George Lovejoy "Doc" Rockwell (March 19, 1889 – March 2, 1978) was an American vaudeville performer and radio personality, active in performing from the 1910s to the early 1940s. Several of his acts involved bananas, leading to the quack doctor banana skit from which he gained his nickname. Well known on radio and in prominent theaters across America, he appeared in two revues on Broadway, including George White's Scandals (1920), and appeared unbilled as himself in the 1937 comedy film The Singing Marine. He created a series of comedy magazines, Ye Olde Mustard Plaster, later Dr. Rockwell's Mustard Plaster. Following his retirement in the 1940s, he wrote a column for Maine's Down East magazine.

He married fellow performer Claire Schade in 1915, who he had three children with. Their marriage was difficult and they divorced in 1924. His eldest son, George Lincoln Rockwell, later became a notorious neo-Nazi and the founder of the American Nazi Party. While Rockwell disavowed his son's beliefs and actions, it nevertheless tarnished his name and reputation.
