Born in Hollywood in the very shadows of the studios, she's never had any inclination to be an actress. As a matter of fact, she's turned down all screen contracts offered her -- and there have been many. She wanted to become a great singer and achieved success as a songstress over radio programs and in New York's Rainbow Room.
