The most info so far about casting director Ruth Burch (1901-2000) is in this blog post. She cast the wonderful characters on TAGS. I wish I knew if she donated her papers to a university or other group. I think she was the key to Mr Schwump. I suspect they were neighbors or friends, he appeared on Gomer Pyle, where she was also in charge of casting. There’s so little about her online; it is sad she has been forgotten.
