WOW, What a singer. She was my uncle's favorite. I think during WWII she was a favorite of many soldiers abroad?

She was a beautiful and classy lady late into her life as well...

She was a great one. She scorned her ability to 'pass' and to please white audiences simply because of the way she looked. I remember seeing her singing on 60's variety and comedy TV shows. She was hot.
