A child prodigy, Børge Rosenbaum studied with Olivo Krause at the Royal Danish Academy of Music and was later under the tutelage of Frederic Lamond, himself a student of Liszt. Fleeing Denmark for the United States in 1940 during the German occupation, Rosenbaum took the name Victor Borge and, speaking no English, adapted his comedic routines for a new audience, finding great success on radio and television.
