On stage from the age of ten, she later toured vaudeville with singer Rae Samuels and became known as \"the world\'s fastest tap dancer.\" By no means a threat to Eleanor Powell, Whitney left films in 1938 to marry. Surprisingly, she returned to the Broadway stage in 1946, opposite Bobby Clark in Moliere\'s The Would-Be Gentleman.— All Movie Biography By: Hans J. Wollstein
