I have grown up all my life (56) during the Christmas season, the one thing you had to watch White Christmas. If there would be one person I would have meet would be her.

So for professional purposes she dropped both her parents' surnames. <br />An inconsequential but interesting oddity is that in the film "White Christmas" she plays the younger of two singing sisters - "The Haynes Sisters", but was actually seven years older than Rosemary Clooney, playing the older sister.Jarbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02305108771390534094noreply@blogger.com
