Biography

Singer and producer who began her musical efforts in Pine Bluff, Arkansas public schools. At fourteen, she entered and won an amateur contest and was awarded a radio contract at a Memphis station, driving a 200-mile trip for each program. Moving to Quincy, Illinois to sing at a local station, she simultaneously began a music-studies course. After a stint at a Shreveport, Louisiana station she began to receive offers from other stations but held off until her goal of working in Cincinnati could be realized. There she co-starred with Red Skelton, and in January 1944 she moved to a CBS station in Chicago and the "Petrillo, Janette and MacCormack" network show. Several other CBS programs followed - "The King's Jesters and Janette", "Serenade and Swing", "Jobs for GI Joe" and "Victory Matinee". In April 1946 she became the featured vocalist on CBS' "The Arthur Godfrey Show" and "Arthur Godfrey and His Friends".
