Deanna Durbin birthday remembrance

Today is Deanna Durbin's 90th birthday!

The singing superstar of the 30s and 40s was born Dec 4 1921.

There is a wonderful birthday series going on at the blog West End Dumplings:
Go to Part 1: From Winnipeg to Hollywood (1921 - 1936)
Go to Part 2: A smashing career (1936 - 1949)

Go to Part 3: Whatever happened to Winnepeg's Sweetheart?

Deanna's 26th Birthday in 1947 took place on the set of Up in Central Park.Co-star Albert Sharpe (right) looks on as Deanna blows out the candles on her carousel-shaped cake.
