How old is he? edit

There are conflicting dates of birth given. Is he 85 or 75? 71.68.238.185 (talk) 01:19, 23 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

Place of birth? edit

While the article states that Segal was born in New York City and provides sources for this claim, other sources state he was born in Great Neck, for example this obituary on NBC website, this one on USA today, and this actor biography on ABC website, and there are more. Which is the correct place of birth? How can this be verified? Thanks, The coffee machine (talk) 17:04, 25 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

A primary source, the New York City birth index, confirms that he was born in NYC. I will look into adding that, as I think it is a permissible use of a primary source per WP:PRIMARY. Coretheapple (talk) 20:27, 26 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
