A teen-age vaudevillian, Dailey appeared on the Broadway musical stage before making such movies as Mother Wore Tights (1947) and When My Baby Smiles at Me (1948).

"It reminds me," he said, "of a little boy who is taken to a wonderful play that happened to be presented on a revolving stage. At the end he did not want to leave. His mother thought he had enjoyed the show, but he said, 'Oh please, just one more turn of the stage...
