Susan Benjamin Presents Betty Grable

Betty Grable’s film career started early with her domineering stage mother lying about her adolescent daughter’s age. Her mother’s assertiveness reaped rewards: Betty became 20th Century Fox’s top star during the 40’s. Her iconic photo made her the Number 1 Pinup Girl during World War II. Betty put personal turmoil aside as her screen presence made her a pleasure to watch. Join us at Sedgebrook as Susan Benjamin presents Grable’s personal story along with examples of her effervescent performances.
