Original Dean Martin Golddigger, playboy bunny (almost), Bob Hope Xmas USO tour entertainer, variety tv show and musical theater performer (over 500 productions), breast cancer survivor, professional philanthropic fund raiser, marathon runner and single parent, I have had my audiences laughing, applauding, cheering, tearing up, and yes sometimes even singing along.
I love to tell the story about my journey from Winnipeg (a prairie girl) to the bright lights of Hollywood (a starlet) to the White House to Vietnam and beyond.
NO NO NO, despite what people may think or say, I WAS NOT THAT KIND OF A GOLDDIGGER!
Let me explain, The Golddiggers were a group of young girls selected out of 1000’s of girls auditioning to be one of the 12 girls surrounding Dean Martin on his hit weekly TV Variety Show.
Little did I know we would become the world FAMOUS Golddiggers with hit record albums, our very own TV Series, be invited to go on Bob Hope’s Annual Christmas Show to entertain out troops around the world and in Vietnam, perform at all our legendary nightclubs, casinos, work alongside our great Hollywood Stars, be invited to The White House for dinner, and today even have our very own fan club!
