Name That 1920's Vaudeville Star!

Opening at The Palace on Broadway in 1920... every vaudevillian's dream, even if you do have to apply your own makeup.

Vaudeville stars who failed to move on into film, radio and/or television are largely forgotten today, yet this woman (who never became a movie star, although she did make a feature titled Deliverance in 1918) remains well-known.

Well-known... but also unknown.

I'm recommending a book - one of the best, most informative, and most enjoyable I've ever read.

Listen to an excerpt (which reveals the identity of the vaudeville star above) and then, if you're of a mind, click here for the Amazon link.
