BLOSSOM SEELEY

ACTING

Blossom Seeley was one of the greatest vaudeville singers, an equal in talent and billing to Nora Bayes and Sophie Tucker.  Blossom began as a child performer and worked San Francisco's Barbary Coast as a ragtime singer.

Her strutting and finger-snapping, syncopated rhythms gave distinction to her act and she was enticed eastward to New York, the center of big-time vaudeville and musical revues.
