Lottie Gee (née Charlotte O. Gee; 17 August 1886 in Millboro, Virginia – 13 January 1973 in Los Angeles) was an American entertainer who performed in shows and musicals during the Harlem Renaissance.
She is perhaps best known as a performer in the 1921 Broadway hit, Shuffle Along, the show that launched the careers of Josephine Baker and Florence Mills.
Initially a dancer in Aida Overton Walker's shows, she appeared in The Red Moon by Aida Overton Walker in 1904 and later toured the vaudeville circuit in multiple acts.
In 1910, composer Ford Dabney (1883–1958) formed several touring vaudeville groups, among which, he and violinist Willie Carroll (né William Thomas Carroll; 1881–1943) conceived and produced Dabney's Ginger Girls, a duet composed of Gee, as dancer and soprano, and Effie King, as dancer and contralto.
[1] Effie King was the stage name of Anna Green (maiden; 1888–1944), who in 1907, married actor Frank Henry Wilson (1885–1956).
