she was actually in the original stage version of "Girl Crazy" the previous year, but that's correct essentially (or correct to the story, who knows if it really happened lol)
Oh yea sorry the ... ( 10 months ago by rockanoarkennels)
Oh yea sorry the stage number.....my bad...
Gregg30 is correct. ... ( 9 months ago by rockanoarkennels)
Gregg30 is correct....Ethel was not Jewish. Ethel is of Protestant Faith. When she had her two children she applied to her husband at the time (Robert Levitt) that she wanted them to be Episcopalian. Levitt altough was a Jewish man. Merman: An Autobiography by George Eells would be a great reading for you if you are not sure....You should read the book and then see what she really was instead of going around and judging her when you really don't know a thing about her!
I strongly suggest ... ( 9 months ago by paulostroff99)
I strongly suggest a reading course for you-along with a vision test.Nowhere was there even a mention of nastiness to this lady,and your news is about s old as last months newspapers.This issue has been long resolved,and does not need the distorted views of yet another.
Thank you! ( 9 months ago by paulostroff99)
Thank you!
I dont Think this ... ( 9 months ago by rockanoarkennels)
I dont Think this issue was resolved and I would rather you get your facts straight. And Wikiepidia is not a accurate source...They have in fact messed up her age 1908-1984. Ethel was born in 1906, though she regards it. So I wouldnt depend on them for information. Her books are a great read and you can learn a lot from them. I read all your comments and I dont think any of them are wise for education. So I will definitely give my rather 'distorted' views If I think something needs to be said.
I came from the ... ( 9 months ago by mssp09)
I came from the same neighborhood in Queens,New York as Ethel Merman. Not that it matters but she was of German and Scottish extraction and both parents were Christian. Zimmerman, her real last name is German. Some Jewish people from that area of Europe happen to also have that name which is why she is mistakingly identified as being Jewish. But why should anyone care what she was? It's Rediculous!!
Wikipedia is as ... ( 9 months ago by paulostroff99)
Wikipedia is as Churchill said of democracy.Democracy is not perfect,but it is the best system that he knows of!
She was wonderful, ... ( 9 months ago by paulostroff99)
She was wonderful,and I love her whatever her faith was.FYI there is no such thing as a Jewish name.Though I believed her to have been Jewish-my purpose- unlike the bigots was not to judge her other than musically.

Also read the new Brian Kellow Bio on Ethel. It's wonderful!
Well the new Brian ... ( 9 months ago by damone77)
Well the new Brian Kellow bio states that Ethel was born in 1908. I highly suggest this bio, as it is superlatively written and tells a great deal about a great lady of the theatre and movies and television. I want to go to the Museum of television and radio and see if they have Ethel's dramatic Part "Honest in the Rain"
Yes, I have read it ... ( 9 months ago by ragtime1925)
Yes, I have read it. Wonderfull book. Dirty but very satisfactory! I also recommend Brass Diva by Carol Flynn, that is a good one too. There are so many reports on Ethel's age I dont know what to think anymore, 1902,1906,1908,1912,1919,1918,1910 I have heard them ALL!!
Yes it has that ... ( 9 months ago by damone77)
Yes it has that fudge story...and if you want to know about it read the book! I'm glad that you read it ragtime; I have no affiliation with the book but think it's the best tome written abou the Merm!

In a 1977 interview with Gene Shalit she said ther that she was 65 so that put her back around 1912,though she did mention that people were quoting her age then as 68.

I got my first ... ( 3 months ago by stefakamelpash)
I got my first lesson in professionalism from Ethel Merman. I was touring with a show doing the Melody Fair circuit of summer theater-in-the-round shows, back in 1964. She had a one woman show that was touring just ahead of us. We arrived early and caught her last show before she moved on. There were only about 75 people in that giant tent. She came out and gave the same slam-bang performance she would give to 5,000 people. She was a pro from top to bottom-a great woman and gret performer.

I love her! What showmanship!!!

This was Merman's voice in its iconic prime. After two years on Broadway as Rose in "Gypsy", two subsequent years touring with the show, a mix on concerts and the 1966 revival of "Annie Get Your Gun" she was in rare form during this time in her career. Love it!
