Actor Born: March 25, 1926 in Seattle, WA Death: February 6, 2009 Biography:The blonde "vamp" or "Little Rich Girl" of such "Our Gang" shorts as "Helping Grandma" (1931) or "Bargain Day", "Shirley Jean Rickert" had won a beautiful baby contest in her native Seattle before making her screen debut opposite comedian "Monte Collins" in How's My Baby (1930). She followed her stint with the Gang with appearances opposite "Mickey McGuire" (later "Mickey Rooney") and in subsequent years worked as a dancer/chorus girl in numerous MGM musicals, from "Best Foot Forward" (1943) to "Singin' in the Rain" (1952). When film musicals went out of fashion, Rickert toured America as a burlesque dancer or, as she herself acknowledges, "a striptease." ~ Hans J. Wollstein, All Movie Guide
