Snapshot in Prose: Ruth Etting ⋆ Cladrite Radio
This prose snapshot of songbird Ruth Etting might fairly be said to be a doctored "photo"---or at the very least retouched. For this profile, from the April 1935 issue of Popular Songs, makes no mention of Martin "Moe the Gimp" Snyder, a gangster to whom young Ruth was wed in 1922 and who had a major impact on her career.
