She went from being a struggling vaudeville performer to the female vocalist in one of the most successful bands in the country to a star in the new-fangled \"talking pictures\" all within the span of a few short years. During the Great Depression, she lived a fairy-tale existence, rubbing shoulders with Hollywood luminaries and earning an income that most people could only dream of. She retired and balanced domestic life with charity work. And she saw, to her amazement, a revived interest in the movie career she had written off long ago. Based on years of conversations between the authors and Dorothy Lee, this book is an informative biography filled with revealing insights on navigating the studio system during Hollywood's Golden Age and the ephemeral nature of fame.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJamie Brotherton\u003c\/b\u003e is a journalist and film historian whose articles and interviews have appeared in such publications as \u003ci\u003eAntique Trader, Comics Buyers Guide, Classic Images\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eFilmfax\u003c\/i\u003e.
