Marlene Dietrich: Difference between revisions

A German actress/singer born in 1901. She started out in vaudeville and theater, then moved to silent films and her transition to sound coincided with the time she moved to America (1930); she became a U.S. citizen in 1939. An anti-Nazi, Dietrich performed for the American troops on the front lines of the European theater of [[World War II]]. Some Germans label her a traitor even today for having abandoned her country.
