About Dinah Shore

Dinah Shore Quotes




Did you know about Dinah Shore?

She guest starred on another 15-minute series The Tony Martin Show starring entertainer Tony Martin but Martin's short program never acquired the popular success as did Shore's. Shore's producers superimposed titles such as "This is a put on" over the footage that was eventually aired including an uncomfortable duet of "Anything You Can Do" and his solo of "On The Street Where You Live". This half-hour show consisted of one-on-one interviews with (Bob Hope) former boyfriends (Burt Reynolds in a special one-hour episode) and political figures (President Gerald Ford and his wife Betty.

She had a string of 80 charted popular hits lasting from 1940 into the late 1950s and after appearing in a handful of films went on to a four-decade career in American television starring in her own music and variety shows in the 1950s/60s and hosting two talk shows in the 1970s. After failing singing auditions for the bands of Benny Goodman and both Jimmy Dorsey and his brother Tommy Dorsey Shore struck out on her own to become the first singer of her era to achieve huge solo success. She reached the height of her popularity as a recording artist during the Big Band era of the 1940s and 1950s but achieved even greater success a decade later in television mainly as hostess of a series of variety programs for Chevrolet.
