sandik Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 She had a very lively career, but I didn't know this (from the NYT obituary): "She began studying ballet and tap at 6 and soon, inspired by Walt Disney, decided that she wanted to be a professional whistler. “There were always birds whistling in the background” of films like “Cinderella” and “Snow White,” she explained, “so I decided to whistle my way to Hollywood.” Link to comment
