Kálmán Latabár

Kálmán Latabár (1902–1970) was a Hungarian comedian and film actor, perhaps the country's most popular comic in the post-war years.

"Latyi" reached his peak popularity during the war years and in the early days of Hungarian television, doing stand-up comedy, operettas and musicals, and comic routines in variety shows.

A talented song-and-dance man, he had impeccable comic timing.

Later in life he made several successful tours in Western Europe, Israel and America, idolized by the émigré Hungarian community.

He was also a regular on the numerous theater stages of Budapest and of the provincial cities of the country.
