editI am removing one, if not a few names, until I have better evidence that they appeared in vaudeville. Some entries are referenced in Laurie's Vaudeville, but little information is provided.
Name | Birth | Death | Nationality | Performance Notes | Reference | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Milton Adolphus | 27 January 1913 | 16 August 1998 | American | Musician. | No citation could be found. | |
Thomas S. Allen | 1876 | 1919 | American | Violinist and songwriter. | No citation found. | |
Louis Armstrong | 4 August 1901 | 6 July 1971 | American | Jazz trumpeter, singer and musician. The reference provides no further information other than that Armstrong appeared in vaudeville. | [1] | |
Balto | c. 1922 | 14 March 1933 | Dog who led a dogsled team from Anchorage, Alaska to Nome carrying life-saving medication. | |||
Black Herman | 1892 | April 1934 | American | Magician | [2][3] | |
Robert Bloch | 5 April 1917 | 23 September 1994 | American | Actor. No information, except for his current Wikipedia article, that states he performed in vaudeville. He may have written some vaudeville sketches, but likely did not perform. | ||
Billie Burke | 7 August 1885 | 14 May 1970 | American | Singer, dancer, actress and Ziegfeld star. Wife of Florenz Ziegfeld. | [4][5] | |
Jimmy Dorsey | 29 February 1904 | 12 June 1957 | American | Clarinetist, saxophonist and bandleader. The reference only says he toured, does not specify vaudeville. | [6] | |
Edmund Milton Holland | 1848 | 1913 | American | Comedian. | [7] |
