Default Re: The history of Dagmars

For all you young 'grasshoppers' too young to remember small-screened black and white TVs that you had to physically twist knobs on to change channels or volume, Dagmar gained her notoriety in early TV programming with the likes of Uncle-Milty Berle, Bob Hope, Eddie Cantor, Frank Sinatra and others. Originally named Ruth Egnor, she was given the name "Dagmar" when she was featured as a 'dumb blond' on TV's first (short-lived) late-night TV show. She should NOT, under any stretch of the imagination, be confused with the front end of a '56 Caddy. DD
