I have another research question. I am involved with a project looking at
the full history of female Jewish comedians. I am looking for visuals...any
ephemera...and yes, audio on any of the following artists. Any lead would
be more than helpful. Because many of them were on small labels that
drifted into obscurity, there is very little good stuff available and we
are looking at putting together a book/CD and museum exhibit as a result of
our efforts.
The artists we are focusing on (some of them we have more ephemera than
others):
Abby Holman c. 1929
> Sophie Tucker c. 1929 & 1950s
> Mae Questel/Betty Boop c. 1940s & 1960s
> Ruth Wallis c 1950s
> Sadie Banks c 1950s
> Abbe Lane c. 1950s-1960s
> Frances Faye c. 1959
> Jean Carroll c. 1960
> Selma Diamond
> Rusty Warren c 1960s
> Patsy Abbott c.1963
> Betty Ross c. 1963
> Gertrude Berg c.1965
> Totie Fields c. 1969
