Already a talented singer and dancer as a child, Georgia matured into a
beautiful Hollywood model. Aged 17, she made the cover of 'Redbook' and
her face continued to be featured throughout the 1930's and 40's in
fashion magazines (Cosmopolitan, Vogue, Ladies Home Journal), on
calendars and in advertising. In 1941, she was signed by Warner
Brothers and decorated several A-grade productions, generally in small
parts and, occasionally, featuring her exquisite voice. She sang
'Should I', in the MGM musical
Alkış Tufanı (1943), where she
met her future husband, the bandleader
Kay Kyser. According to Kyser's publicist/band
manager, Paul Mosher, Georgia and Kay were speeding through Nevada one
night in June 1944, when they were pulled over by a state trooper. In
order to avoid the bad publicity of a speeding charge, they swore that
they were on their way to get married. Thus preempted, they roused a
Justice of the Peace from his sleep and went on to become one of the
most successful couples in show business. Georgia continued as vocalist
with the Kay Kyser band, as well making appearances on television. She
retired in 1951, concentrating on raising her family, collecting
antiques and being active in the Chapel Hill (N.C.) historical
preservation movement.
