	Wayne and Shuster - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Wayne and Shuster were a Canadian comedy duo formed by Johnny Wayne and Frank Shuster.
		Wayne (born Louis Weingarten, May 28, 1918 – July 18, 1990) and Shuster (September 5, 1916 – January 13, 2002) met as high school students at Harbord Collegiate Institute in Toronto, Ontario, Canada in 1930.
		Shuster, who died in 2002, attempted some solo work after Wayne died, but was mostly seen during his last decade hosting Wayne and Shuster retrospectives, including Wayne and Shuster in Black and White, a CBC series that aired in prime time during the early-1990s.

	Living in Shuster's house
		So, as a devout fan of Frank Shuster and his partner Johnny Wayne, starting from the time their CBC TV shows were broadcast in fl and white, I feel lucky to be surrounded by the magical Shuster aura.
		Although the built-in bookshelves in the Shuster study have remained the same, the comedian and his partner might not recognize the room, which is now crammed with computers, printer, fax machine, desks, file cabinets, and a lot of books on real estate and coins (my other life interest).
		Shuster was quoted as saying that the pair kept regular office hours and reserved the evenings for their families and friends.

		Shuster's seminal show business influences began after his family moved to Niagara Falls, where his father was the projectionist at the Colonial Theatre.

		Beginning in radio and then moving to TV, their style never really changed over the years: an odd blending of high and low-brow, parodying Shakespeare one minute and the latest movies and TV commercials the next, sophisticated wordplay mixed up with a lot of mugging and groan inducing puns.
