Annie Ross
Annie Ross
The niece of musical comedy star Ella Logan (Finian's Rainbow), British-born Annie Ross was raised in America, where she secured work as a child actress. Ross was the kilted lassie who sings "Loch Lomond" in the 1937 two-reeler Our Gang Follies of 1938; she was also featured in Judy Garland's Presenting Lily Mars (1943). As a teenager, Ross studied drama in Manhattan, returned to a brief singing career in England, then emerged in the 1950s as a popular jazz singer; for many years she was a member of the influential American vocal group Lambert, Hendricks & Ross. She continued to appear in films as a character actress into the 1990s, including an amusing villainess turn in Superman III. As a solo stage performer, Ross was one of the stars of the Broadway musical revue Side by Side by Sondheim. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
