Mitzi Mayfair
Mitzi Mayfair was during the 30s and 40s a tap-dancer on Broadway. Her shows included "The Show Is On", and "Take a Chance". After Eleanor Powell's breakdown in January 1936, she replaced Miss Powell in "At Home Abroad". Mitzi Mayfair's film work was small, only co-starring in Four Jills in a Jeep (1944) and a few Vitaphone Shorts.
