Ginger Rogers dance on air
|
She was an actress, dancer, and singer in what was considered the "Golden Age" of Hollywood, you know, before Hollywood and the rest of California became largely a bunch of rude stupid libtard slugs.
Born Virginia Katherine McMath in Independence, Missouri on July 16, 1911 she was raised in Kansas City and relocated to Texas with her family.
She embarked on a successful vaudeville career after winning a 1925 Charleston dance contest.
She went on to a stage debut which led to a contract with Paramount where she did five films.
Her career traversed the gamut from stage, radio, television, and film.
She is best remembered for the musicals she did with Fred Astaire during the 1930s.
Ginger Rogers passed away April 25, 1995 in Rancho Mirage, California of natural causes at age 83 after a career of 73 films and five husbands.
She was interred at Oakwood Memorial Park Cemetery in Chatsworth, California.
