Frances Gershwin

She was born in Manhattan, the younger sister of George, Ira and Arthur Gershwin.

She was the first of the Gershwin family to perform as a child, and she brought home a good sum of money for the time.

Frances traveled to Europe with her brother George and performed at parties with him.

After she married, she continued her artistic activities, at one point winning a French painting award.

Her final resting place is the Gershwin Mausoleum, along with her husband, brothers, and parents.
