Once upon a time there was a little tenyear-old girl named Kay Lorraine Grimm. This, little girl sang very beautifully even then and grew up to become a real professional singer whose voice was familiar to most radio listeners throughout the country. It sounds very much like a fairy tale and to Kay it almost seemed like one. You know her now as Kay Lorraine and you've heard her on many shows from coast to coast. She was born in St. Louis, Missouri, just twenty-five years ago. She wasn't exactly a Shirley Temple, but she did begin to sing at a very early age and when she was ten made her first public appearance singing in the chorus of the St. Louis Municipal Opera. Just about then, too, she began to study the piano with vague notions of becoming a concert pianist. However, there was school to go to and some growing up to do before careers could even be thought of seriously. It wasn't until Kay was seventeen that she really made her professional debut — which means sang for money. That was when she began to sing with campus bands for dances in and round St. Louis. These engagements led to a sustaining spot on station KMOX in St. Louis. They also drove all ideas about becoming a concert pianist from her mind. She still plays a little but, as she tells it, "it's strictly off the elbow and for my own chagrin." Then, Kay landed a job singing with Al Roth's band and made a series of appearances on a program called St. Louis Blues, which won her an invitation to come to New York and sing as a guest artist on the Hit Parade. That was back in 1939. For forty weeks after that Kay was kept busy without a let up. She appeared on such major programs as 99 Men and a Girl, the Ford Summer Hour, Vaudeville Theater, Song of Your Life and the Pursuit of Happiness. Nor did she miss out on that all time favorite show The Chamber Music Society of Lower Basin Street. This year, like so many other radio stars, Kay had her chance in Metro-GoldwynMayer's new radio feature show, Screen Test, and acquitted herself nobly. And why shouldn't she? She's lovely, a tallish, slender, green-eyed blonde with a voice, talent and experience. Now, she's heard regularly on a transcribed series called Musical Showcase, besides which, under the name of Kay Stevens, she sings on the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer program Gloom Dodgers, no mean assignment, since it goes on the air every day, Monday through Friday, from 9 A.M. to 1 P.M. over the New York station WHN. She's also served her apprenticeship in night clubs, appearing in the swanky Stork Club. Naturally and inevitably, because she's a nice gal, she's also doing her bit for the boys, sandwiching many benefit performances at hospitals and the Stage Door Canteen between her heavy broadcast duties.
