Trivia

Screen, stage, and burlesque actress.

Known around the turn of the century as "The Girl With the Million Dollar Legs."

According to an article in The Southeast Missourian, she was working as a restaurant cashier in New York in 1920.

Her stepbrother was A.J. Bailey, the Bailey in Barnum & Bailey Circus.

A syndicated news item in 1923 noted that she was working as a salesperson at a drugstore in Hollywood.

A 1928 article by Hortense Saunders reported that Bailey was the front desk clerk at the Lincoln Hotel in New York City and that she was planning to go into business.

Just before her 75th birthday, it was reported that she was broke and nearly destitute, living in a tiny apartment off of Hollywood Boulevard, and that she had made a recent bid for work as an extra in motion pictures. This so-called comeback had not been successful: she worked six days as a background actor over the course of three years.

Made her stage debut in 1892.
