biography

A performer since age three, the effervescent Nanette Fabray has managed to keep her career moving not only because of her ample talent, but also due to her ability to move easily from screen to stage with ease. She went from adorable performing child to lightly boiled dames to the kind of girls guys like to talk to as friends to a sweet "everyone's aunt" kind of woman to caring, though slightly overbearing mothers. Amazingly, Fabray has also managed to continue singing as well as acting, although for at least half her life she has been hearing-impaired and wears hearing aids.
