The Film, TV and Broadway actress had one of the longest-running careers in entertainment, according to the obituary on her website (http://missrosemarie.com/).
After a career as a popular radio personality, Marie got her big break performing in movies such as “International House” and “Big Broadcast of 1935.” She was invited to be a headliner by Benjamin “Bugsy” Segal at the Flamingo casino hotel in Las Vegas in 1946 before becoming a household name on “Dick Van Dyke” in 1961.
