Jeanette MacDonald…can you believe she was born 110 years ago today?
Jeanette – today we celebrate your life, your films and your music today! And for those in the Los Angeles area, we will toast your life and accomplishments this weekend in person…with ice cream and birthday cake at our 2013 Birthday Bash!
Post your comments and reflections here.
We will remember… !
Have been a fan of Jeanette and Nelson since I was very young….recently re-discovered their magical music, and want to thank you for the wonderful website and your efforts to keep them and their music alive. I’m planning to have a movie night at Grandma’s to introduce my grandchildren to their beautiful voices.
Thanks again..you are a treasure.
