p_rhodesd.jpgIt is surprising that so little is known about this performer considering the large number of compositions located.

Her portrait on the left is taken from South of the Border (1939) words & music by Jimmy Kennedy, co-author Michael Carr, and published by Shapiro, Bernstein & Co., New York & Chicago, USA.
