Montana Entertainers by Brian D'Ambrosio, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Treasure State stars Gary Cooper and Myrna Loy found unparalleled success during the Golden Age of Hollywood. For more than a century, Montana has supplied a rich vein of entertainment and personality-from daredevils to dancers and even mimes. Born in Miles City in 1895, comedian Gilbert \"Pee Wee\" Holmes played sidekick to such stars as Tom Mix. One-time Butte resident Julian Eltinge went on to become America's first famous female impersonator. There was Taylor Gordon, whose golden voice propelled the son of a slave from White Sulphur Springs to Harlem Renaissance fame. From the little-known Robyn Adair to the ever-popular Michelle Williams, author Brian D'Ambrosio marks Big Sky Country's long-standing connections with America's performing arts. | Montana Entertainers by Brian D'Ambrosio, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
