Back to Main News Summaries Daily News Quiz Word of the Day ... Job Opportunities February 16, 1984 OBITUARY Ethel Merman, Queen of Musicals, Dies at 76 By MURRAY SCHUMACH Ethel Merman, the musical-comedy star whose belting voice and brassy style entertained Broadway and movie audiences for 50 years, was found dead in her Manhattan apartment yesterday. Miss Merman, who was 76 years old, had undergone surgery to remove a brain tumor last April. The Medical Examiner's office reported yesterday that she died of natural causes. The singer's booming voice was first heard on a Broadway stage in 1930 when she brought down the house singing ''I Got Rhythm'' in the Gershwin musical ''Girl Crazy.'' Her last major appearance in New York was in 1982, when she took part in a Carnegie Hall benefit concert. Miss Merman's most memorable shows included Cole Porter's ''Anything Goes'' and ''Dubarry Was a Lady,'' Irving Berlin's ''Annie Get Your Gun'' and the Jule Styne-Stephen Sondheim musical ''Gypsy,'' which she considered her best. Her 14 movies included ''Alexander's Ragtime Band,'' ''There's No Business Like Show Business'' and ''It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.'' Beginning in 1930, and for more than a quarter of a century thereafter, no Broadway season seemed really complete unless it had a musical with Ethel Merman. In that period, the chunky, aggressive star with the clarion voice, brash personality, shrewd comic sense and steel nerves was the darling of such master songwriters as George Gershwin, Irving Berlin, Cole Porter and Jule Styne.

ETHEL MERMAN Actor Singer Name at birth: Ethel Agnes Zimmerman Ethel Merman's brassy voice and knock-'em-dead style made her a favorite with Broadway audiences. She sang "I Got Rhythm" in the 1930 George and Ira Gershwin musical Girl Crazy , and in 1946 she played cowgirl Annie Oakley in the original Broadway production of Annie Get Your Gun . The latter show's hit number, "There's No Business Like Show Business," became Merman's signature tune. She continued performing into the 1970s, often appearing on TV as a beloved symbol of Broadway sass. She also had a memorable turn as a nagging mother-in-law in the slapstick movie It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World (1963, with Mickey Rooney and ZaSu Pitts Extra credit : Merman was married four times; the fourth marriage, to actor Ernest Borgnine in 1964, lasted 32 days...

Born: January 16, 1909 Died: February 15, 1984 Merman was the most successful musical comedy performer of her generation. Known for her loud, clear voice and excellent enunciation, she was a favorite of such songwriters as George and Ira Gershwin, Cole Porter , and Irving Berlin , and she introduced some of their most popular songs, including "I Got Rhythm," "You're the Top," "I Get a Kick Out of You," and "There's No Business Like Show Business." Merman reached her zenith as Rose, the overbearing mother of Gypsy Rose Lee in Jule Styne and Stephen Sondheim 's "Gypsy," singing such songs as "Everything's Coming Up Roses." She appeared in vaudeville and in nightclubs, gave concerts, made records, and performed on radio, on television, and in films. Her primary achievement was in the 13 roles she created on Broadway between 1930 and 1959. Merman was the daughter of Edward Zimmermann, a bookkeeper and amateur keyboard player, and Agnes Gardner Zimmermann. She began singing in public as a child. During World War I she entertained at local military camps. After graduating from high school she became a secretary but moonlighted as a nightclub singer. Shortening her name to Merman, she became successful in vaudeville, performing at the Palace Theatre in N.Y. in September 1930 before turning to the legitimate stage in the Gershwins' musical "Girl Crazy" (N.Y., Oct. 14, 1930). It played 272 performances, and during its run she also appeared at the Central Park Casino and began making films at the Paramount studio, then located in N.Y. Many of these films were shorts or cartoons; her first appearance in a feature film came with FOLLOW THE LEADER, released in December 1930.
