Ann Sothern Happy Heavenly Birthday (22 January 1909 - 15 March 2001) She was an American actress, worked on Stage, radio film and television. Sothern began her career in late 1920 bit part in films. In 1930 she, she made her Broadway stage debut and soon worked her way up to starring roles. In 1939 as Maisie Ravier, a brash at lovable Brooklyn showgirl. The character based on the Maisie short stories proved to be popular and spawned a successful film series (Congo Maisie, Gold Rush Maisie and Up Goes Maisie.) Her final film Whales of August, with Bettie Davis and Lillian Gish. Sothern earned her first and only Academy Award for the Best Supporting Actress for her role in the film.

A natural redhead, Sothern switched to blonde locks and stayed with that look throughout her career. After some inconsequential parts, Sothern decided to head east and made her Broadway bow in the musical "Smiles" (1930-31), which was followed by "America's Sweetheart" (1931), "Everybody's Welcome" (1931-32), and the George Gershwin effort "Of Thee I Sing" (1933).

With her bubbly personality and good looks, Sothern's next few film roles were as chorus girls in comedies, with her first noteworthy assignment coming opposite Edmund Lowe in the musical romance "Let's Fall in Love" (1933). Now under contract to Columbia Pictures, she also appeared opposite Eddie Cantor and Ethel Merman in "Kid Millions" (1934), but quickly dipped into B-features like the memorably titled, but otherwise forgettable "Hell-Ship Morgan" (1936).

Sothern appeared in similar, second-tier efforts for RKO, but in the wake of her strong performance in the drama "Trade Winds" (1938), MGM added the actress to their talent roster and assigned Sothern the motion picture role for which she would be best remembered: sassy, loveable Brooklyn chorus girl "Maisie" (1939). The popularity of the "Maisie" series also launched a radio career for Sothern, and she took the character to that medium with the program "The Adventures of Maisie" (CBS, 1945-47). "Undercover Maisie" (1947) was the 10th and final feature, a relief to Sothern, though she continued on with the radio version (syndication/Mutual, 1949-1953) for a few more years.
