#2 in the Zeigfeld series. This is Doris. I'll bet she was amazing! Doris lived to be 106 years old and passed away in 2010. She joined the Follies at the early age of13.
"When her career in stage and screen declined, Eaton Travis started a second career as an Arthur Murray dance instructor and local television personality in Detroit. Her association with Arthur Murray lasted for three decades, during which time she rose through the ranks to own and manage a chain of nearly twenty schools. After retiring from her career with Arthur Murray, she went on to manage a horse ranch with her husband and returned to school, eventually earning several degrees." - Wikipedia, Doris Eaton Travis I just had to paint her.
