Geri McGee

Geraldine "Geri" McGee (May 16, 1936 – November 9, 1982) was an American model and Las Vegas showgirl.

McGee grew up near Sherman Oaks, California, and graduated from Van Nuys High School in the year 1954.

[3] In high school, McGee met an older student named Lenny Marmor, and the two later became inseparable.

Marmor recognized McGee's looks and talent, and he began entering her in swimsuit and dance contests, where she often took home prizes.

Marmor stayed in the city of Los Angeles, and McGee and her daughter moved to Las Vegas.

Alice suffered from some mental illness, which put a strain on Geri and her daughter's home life.

After the divorce, on October 4, 1982, Frank Rosenthal escaped serious injury when a bomb was detonated under his car outside the Tony Roma's Restaurant at 600 East Sahara Avenue in Las Vegas.

Her sister stated she believed McGee had been murdered by the mob who had tried to kill Frank Rosenthal just weeks earlier because perhaps she "knew too much" about the Las Vegas underworld.

[citation needed] The Los Angeles coroner ruled McGee's cause of death was an accidental overdose.
