Marion Mann (9 September 1914 - 1966) was a singer with Bob Crosby’s Orchestra and Bob Cats from 1938 – 1941.
As you well may know I usually have a comprehensive biography of my birthday celebrities but Marion Mann has been a labour of love. I have spent hours combing the web for any information and all I got is what you see below.
Marion Mann was was born Marion Bateson in Columbus, OH, United States 9 September 1914.
Before all these breaks, Marion had one that wasn't at all lucky. An auto accident left her with a fractured pelvis, broken collar bone, and skull puncture, nearly ending her career. But she didn't let it, and after leaving Crosby for Breakfast Club she learned to cook and tell riddles.She was with the Breakfast Club at WMAQ for NBC from1942 to 1947. During 1945 she recorded some Musicraft sides with Jose Bethancourt and his Orchestra. And that’s about it regarding Marion Mann.
Any other information about this under-appreciated singer would be much appreciated.
