Kittee Rayburn

Overview

It is surprising that so little is known about this performer considering the large number of compositions located. All that can presently (June 2022) be gleaned about Kittee Rayburn from sheet music covers and by Internet searching is that she was presumably an English music hall actress/singer who has been featured on 12 works published between 1899 and 1910.
Her portrait on the left is taken from a rare music hall card by Salmon and Gluckstein Ltd.
Surfers are welcome to contribute any further information about this performer.
