I loved Martha and used to watch all the old movies when I was growing up. I did not know this though. She was loud but not a bragger. Hugs to Martha!!!!!

I'll be jiggerd, I never knew that about Martha Raye, just thought she was a commediane. Lot of good people were actors in those good old days.

My dad shared stories about many actors and actresses. The names didn't always ring bells. I remember hoer, however, because we called her Mouth-a Ray. She would open that big mouth of hers ad the sounds would come pouring out. Thanks for the refresher Ditter.

I didn't know that about Martha Ray. My husband and I used to enjoy the "Bob Hope Christmas Special" every year. Thanks for the info.
