He was born Aaron Chwatt, but some patrons at an early gig renamed him for his red hair and the brass buttons on his uniform. Buttons became a sudden star in 1952 with his CBS variety show, on which he danced goofily to a trademark lyric, "Hoho-hehe-haha. Strange things are happening!" That became a national catchphrase, but his show was soon dropped. He rebounded...
