Ethel zim-MERMAN, Broadway & Hollywood
The famous American singer and actress Ethel Merman was actually a Zimmerman (I believe from Brooklyn, NY ?) who dropped the "zim" somewhere before she started to "tread the boards". I remember when she died in February 1984 at the age of 75 (I was seeing some Broadway shows at the time).Does anyone have some history of her family background and how they came to be in the USA ? Is there anyone else in that family line who went into "show business" or some other part of the arts and culture sector ?
