Lillian Russell and daughter:Lillian Russell (born 1861,Clinton, Iowa - died 1922, Pittsburgh,Pa.)American singer and actress in light comedies who represented the feminine ideal of her generation.She was as famous for her flamboyant personal life as for her beauty and voice.About 1877 or 1878 she was taken by her mother to NYC,where her early training in voice and violin was supplemented by a year of opera study. Her first stage role was in the chorus of a Brooklyn company.In 1880 she made her NYC debut.

Design credits: |
She was in the news frequently because of her personal life—her marriage to Solomon in 1884 was annulled nine years later after his arrest for bigamy,two of her other three marriages ended in divorce, and she was for 40 years a frequent companion of tycoon James Buchanan Brady.After 1912 she appeared only rarely on the stage and began to write articles on beauty for the women’s pages of the Chicago Herald and the Chicago Tribune.
