girl of all pin-up girls, Betty Grable was the favorite among
US soldiers during World War II. Starting as a chorus girl when
she was barely a teenager, Betty proved to be a gifted singer,
dancer and actress. She made over 40 films during her career,
including "How To Marry A Millionaire" with Marilyn Monroe and
Lauren Bacall. Long before Mary Hart, Betty's legs were insured
with Lloyds of London for a reputed $1 million. During her heyday,
Betty was both the highest paid star in Hollywood and one of
the wealthiest women in all of America.
