Robert Q.
Lewis (born Robert Goldberg; April 25, 1920 – December 11, 1991) was an American radio and television personality, game show host, and actor.
Lewis added the middle initial "Q" to his name accidentally on the air in 1942, when he responded to a reference to radio comedian F.
Chase Taylor's character, Colonel Lemuel Q.
Stoopnagle, by saying, "and this is Robert Q.
Lewis." He subsequently decided to retain the initial, telling interviewers that it stood for "Quizzical."Lewis is perhaps best known for his game show participation, having been the first host of The Name's the Same, and regularly appearing on other Goodson-Todman panel shows.
He also hosted and appeared on a multitude of television shows of the 1940s through the 1970s.His most distinguishing feature was his horn-rimmed glasses, to the point that the title card for his second Robert Q.
Lewis Show featured a pair of such glasses as a logo, and they were mentioned in the title of his lecture.
As a frequent guest panelist on What's My Line?, Lewis's blindfold featured a sketched pair of glasses.
