  • Silver and Gold: Ah, one of our favorite songs from the Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer special. On this day in 1909, the man who sang that song—Burl Ives—was born. Before he was known as Sam the Snowman, Ives had a long career in folk music, as well as on Broadway and in film. But it's his role as Sam, and the songs Silver and Gold and Holly Jolly Christmas, that will stand the test of time for Ives, as youngsters continue to enjoy the 1964 television classic today.
