Welcome to the Harpo Marx Website. My name is Bill Marx, and my dad is Harpo Marx.
Bio of harpo marx
I created this site on behalf of The Harpo Marx Foundation and his family so that visitors who stop by can see a different perspective on Harpo... and learn sides of the man that might not be very obvious from that crazy fright-wigged character who chases girls in Marx Brothers movies.
In other words - the complete man.
Dad always said there were two Harpos - the actor and the man. The actor was the one who horsed around with his brothers and pulled all sorts of junk from that bottomless pit of a trench coat.
But it was also the man who sat down and played the harp.
And it was the man that I knew best.

The man I just called - Dad.
My Dad was a great father to me and my two Marx Brothers - Jimmy and Alex, and my Marx sister - Minnie. I was also fortunate to have had a musical kinship with him that spurred my own pursuits...
and also resulted in fun collaborations with him both as Dad and Harpo.
