Most of the people in the Delaware Valley know Sally Starr because of her longtime Popeye Theater program for children. Sally has done much much more.
Sally had her debut at the age of 12 (1935 on a radio show known as the "Blush Creek Follies." She and her sister were the "Little Missouri Maids."
Sally went on to become a singer, an actress, a radio DJ, a band leader, and of course, the hostess of thousands of Popeye Theater shows. Sally was known as one of the sweetest people in the business. She had not trouble bringing the top stars of the day to her shows. They included Chief Halftown, Roy Rogers and Dale Evens, Chuck Connors (The Rifleman), Dick Clark, Jerry Lewis, Tim Conway, Jimmy Durante, Nick Adams, Gene Autry.
We all know that her favorites were The Three Stooges. They appeared many times at her request. Her first movie role was in "The Outlaws is Coming which starred The Three Stooges. She went on to do several other movies.
Her list of accomplishments are too many to list, but suffice it to say that Sally is still entertaining. She has a show. She does personal appearances. She is still Our Gal Sal.
Love, Luck, and Lollipops!!!
