Mitzi Mayfair

Mitzi Mayfair (born Juanita Emylyn Pique; June 6, 1914[1][2][3] – May 30, 1976)[2] was an American dancer and stage and film actress.

[7][6][8] She joined the cast of At Home Abroad when star Eleanor Powell, also discovered by Gus Edwards, had to leave the show.

[6] According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, "the manager of the Main Street Theater in Kansas City" did not like her name, and changed it to Mitzi Mayfair without her knowledge; when she first saw the name on the marquee, she thought she had been replaced.

[9] During World War II, Mayfair embarked on a USO tour of Europe and North Africa with Kay Francis, Carole Landis, Martha Raye and others.

Mayfair appeared in a number of shorts, but this, Paramount on Parade (1930) and a brief cameo in Stage Door Canteen (1943) were her only feature film credits.
