Eddie Acuff (June 3, 1903 – December 17, 1956) was an American actor. His best-known recurring role is that of Mr. Beasley, the postman, in the Blondie movie series that starred Penny Singleton and Arthur Lake.
Born in Caruthersville, Missouri, Acuff was probably bitten by the acting bug through association with his maternal uncle, a performer on 19th century showboats along the Mississippi River. Before beginning his Hollywood film career in 1934, he performed in Broadway theatre in the early-1930s. He died in Hollywood, California and is buried in Valhalla Memorial Park Cemetery.
