Although Blossom Seeley's career was probably at its most successful during the 1920s, she was first seen in vaudeville at the age of 17 in 1908, while her last public appearance was on television in the 1960s in the Ed Sullivan Show when she was 75. In between she made a number of broadway appearances. A native of California, where she was born on 16 July 1891, Miss Seeley was introduced to San Francisco audiences as a 'coon-shouter,' a description shared by a number of other 'ragtime' singers including May Irwin, Sophie Tucker, Stella Mayhew and Elida Morris. Soon afterwards she came to the notice of Lew Fields in New York who gave her a part in his show. Blossom Seeley was married three times: first to Joe Kane (1911-1913), second to Rube Marquard the well-known HOF baseball pitcher (1913-1920), and finally to fellow vaudevillian Benny Fields (1921 until his death in 1959).
