American singer and actress. Her most noted work was in wartime musicals such

spent most of her formative years in Dallas, Texas. She had at least

two siblings, both sisters. She got a job as a singer in the 1930s with CBS radio. Her work

impressed a scout from Universal

Studios and she signed a contract with the company. Among the

stars she worked with was W. C. Fields in You Can't Cheat an Honest Man (1939).

She appeared on Broadway in the musical By Jupiter.

O'Keefe on Hollywood Mystery Time on ABC radio. She retired from films in

1947 but made sporadic appearances over the next few decades. She appeared on

a USO tour with Bob Hope and

the Nicholas Brothers in 1951.[ She

painted still lifes and in 1976 was the chairperson for the Braille

Institute Auxiliary in Beverly Hills, California.[ Moore

guest starred as Doris in the episode "Just a Housewife" (1960) on

the ABC sitcom, The Donna Reed Show. In the 1961–1962

short-lived nostalgia series, Window on Main Street.
