Biography

Bill Saluga, a talented actor, was a prominent figure in the Ace Trucking Company comedy troupe, and his remarkable performances left a lasting impression on audiences across television screens in the 1970s and early 1980s.

As the eccentric and obnoxious character "Raymond J. Johnson, Jr.", Saluga's antics captivated viewers, showcasing his versatility and comedic range. However, when addressed as "Johnson", he would unleash a passionate and humorous diatribe, emphasizing the importance of being referred to by his preferred nicknames, "RAY" or "JAY", as opposed to the more formal and less endearing moniker, "Johnson".
