Biography
  1. Gypsy Rose Lee, burlesque star, actress, author and televison personality was born Rose Louise Hovick, January 9, 1914 in Seattle, Washington. She performed with her sister June in vaudeville shows touring the country during the 1920s. After the decline in vaudeville's popularity, Miss Lee turned to burlesque and became a major striptease star in the 1930s. In 1938, she signed with Twentieth Century-Fox to act in films. She went back to burlesque in the 1940s, but also began to cultivate her writing skills becoming an author. She wrote three mystery novels and her memoir, entitled GYPSY. Her memoir was adapted for the stage in 1959 and later became a motion picture in 1962. Gypsy Rose Lee moved from New York to California in 1965 and soon became host of her own talk show which ran from 1965-1968. Gypsy Rose Lee died April 26, 1970.
