Biography
At the age of two, Teresa was brought by her mother to audition for a radio program, “Uncle August’s Kiddie Show” on Toledo’s WSPD. She performed for cookies and cupcakes donated by the sponsor. Although she never took singing lessons, she took lessons to tap dance. From age five to twelve, she toured with the “Major Bowes Amateur Hour,” then a popular radio show, both singing and dancing. She travelled with her aunt Mary until she married in 1949 and was devoted to the aunt, who lived with her until 1993, when Teresa’s aunt Mary died.
At the age of 12, Teresa was brought back to Toledo, ceasing touring to have a normal school life. She did, however, continue to perform on local radio.
In January 1948 the sixteen-year-old Teresa won a local competition and (with three other winners) was sent to New York to appear on a talent show called “Stairway to the Stars,” featuring Eddie Dowling. It was about that time that she changed the spelling of her name, as she won a number of talent shows and played night clubs in New York (including the famous Latin Quarter).

I'm referring to "Music, Music, Music" - but now I'm listening to "I saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus". They don't make them like this any longer!

Oh dear. This must rank along with "How much is that Doggie in the Window" as my very first pop music memory (though I think it must have been a cover version as there are bits of this track which sound new to me). This was pop music before the Rock Revolution.
