DOLL FROM DALLAS...
Margaret "Honey" Johnson is not the girl on our cover, but she has much in common with our cover girl, Georgia Carroll. Both girls were raised in Dallas, Texas, both have blonde hair and blue eyes and both have been models and — believe it or not, both are five feet, eight inches tall. We might add that both are beautiful, but you can see that for yourself.
"Honey" — her real name is Margaret, bat nobody ever calls her anything but Honey — is now Wally Butterworth's partner on the Mutual Take A Card quiz. Not only is she a comedienne, but also a writer, a singer, an actress, a musician, an arranger and sometimes still a model.
Honey's domestic and professional life run hand in hand, since she works on some of her shows with her husband, Travis Johnson. The Johnsons form half of the Song Spinners Quartet on Mutual. They have two children, a boy aged three and a half and a girl a little less than a year old.
Born in La Grange, Missouri, "Honey" spent most of her early life in Dallas, where her father, Dr. Walter Bassett, is pastor of the biggest Baptist church in the South. He wanted Honey to be a concert pianist and her years of music lessons show in the way she now plays piano and arranges.
With her two sisters, one of whom is now the famous model Elaine Bassett, "Honey" formed a trio on WFAA in Dallas. That was her start in radio and the trio was a favorite of Dallas listeners, until "Honey" decided to come to New York to study piano with Josef Lhevinne.
She might still be studying, or perhaps she might be a concert pianist, if it hadn't been for Bob Hope. Honey heard that Hope was looking for a Southern girl to play as a comedy aid. She telephoned Robert and began giving him a line in Southern dialect which had him choking with laughter. He signed her as "Honeychile" on the strength of the telephone audition. For several years, she was one of the highlights on the Hope show until he left for Hollywood.
Since then, "Honey" has played leads in such radio shows as Meet Mr. Meek, the Dick Todd show, Vaudeville Theater, the Frank Fay show, two years on the Kate Smith show and her current Song Spinners and the new Take A Card show on Mutual, Wednesdays at 8:30 P.M., EWT.
"Honey's" chief hobby is collecting old, out of print books of rare songs. Among her collection, one of the largest privately owned ones in the East, is one volume printed by hand in 1558.
"Honey," amazingly enough, hasn't a Southern drawl. She has a Southern accent all right, but she keeps trying to cure herself of talking too fast. She likes tennis, golf, swimming, anything that will keep her on the move. She makes friends easily, always has a crowd around her in the studio and, as the photograph of her reveals, she has one of the nicest smiles ever to come from deep in the heart of Texas.
