Mary Martin made two movies with Bing Crosby, compu-smart, "Rhythm on the River" (1940) and "Birth of the Blues." (1941) Here's a quote from Wikipedia: (Mary) Martin’s craft was developed by seeing movies and becoming a mimic. She’d win prizes for looking, acting and dancing like Ruby Keeler and singing exactly like Bing Crosby. I wish I could play golf like Lee Trevino!

Lots of familiar faces...Richard Pryor, Woody Allen, Lou Rawls, Charlene Tilton also known as Lucy Ewing from the tv series Dallas that I never missed a show.

But my favorite today is Bette Midler. I'll always remember her singing to Johnny Carson on his final episode as host of "the Tonight Show" which earned her an emmy award in Outstanding Individual Performance in 1992. She also won record of the year in 1989 for her #1 hit "Wind Beneath My Wings" and her rendition of the 1990 song "From A Distance" earning her a Grammy for another of her most popular songs. I also loved watching her in "The Rose" and "Hocus Pocus" and others. Happy Birthday to you Bette Midler:)
