Before he earned five Emmy nominations for his performance as the eccentric and often shoeless Bertram Cooper on “Mad Men,” Robert Morse was climbing the corporate ladder in the Broadway smash musical “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.”

More than four decades before he earned five Emmy nominations for his performance as the eccentric and often shoeless Bertram Cooper, founding partner of the ad agency Sterling Cooper on “Mad Men,” Robert Morse was climbing the corporate ladder in the Broadway smash musical “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.”

“John F. Kennedy came to see the show,” recalled Morse, who is still boyish at 88. “He came backstage and shook my hand. He sent me a lovely, lovely picture, ‘With Esteemed and Best Wishes, John F. Kennedy.’ Those are the memories that I now hold on to because as you get older, sometimes you think ‘Oh my God, I didn’t do anything.’ And then you go to IMDb and you look at everything you’ve done and go, ‘Hey, be proud of yourself.

Missing from the Broadway cast was Charles Nelson Reilly, who also won a Tony as Bud Frump, Biggley’s weasel of a nephew. Anthony Teague plays Frump in the movie.
