Dinah Shore

The only thing I can remember about Dinah Shore is that she had a talk show in the 1970s.

She had several shows, actually. I think the one I remember was "Dinah!"

She also sang this:
See the USA in your Chevrolet 
America is asking you to call 
Drive your Chevrolet through the USA 
America’s the greatest land of all. 

She had a house in Palm Springs. It's really cool. Visit here.

Jack Benny House

If you're under 50, you probably don't know who Jack Benny was.

The most memorable Jack Benny trait is that he was eternally 39. Benny lived close to where he worked--a two minute walk to the studio where he broadcasted his radio show from the El Mirador Hotel.
