17 year old Wynn Murray already had two Broadway hits on her resume when she joined The Fred Allen show as the resident Female Vocalist in 1939.





Fred Allen’s decision to bring a famous female vocalist onto his show in 1939 was a recognition that female singers were now in vogue.





Singers like Connie Boswell on the Good News Program, and Charlie McCarthy’s Dorothy LaMour were part of their show’s ratings success.





Those Shows broadcast from Hollywood so those singers came from the film industry.





Fred Allen broadcast from New York City so he had access to Broadway Talent, and Wynn Murray was one of New York Theater’s most promising young shining stars.





SONGS:





Sing For Your Supper





Great Day





Johnny One Note





Comes Love

Blow Gabriel Blow





The Man with the Mandolin
