Musicians/Actors and Actresses

This section is devoted to individuals who have had success with acting (film, television, or stage) and music. Music theater performers, who act and sing, figure prominently in this section as do film actors/actresses who were active during the 1940s and 1950s, when characters sang songs that were integrated into the movies. Some performers, namely Florence Henderson and Burl Ives, stayed busy throughout their careers with both acting and music.
