Sybil Bruncheon has been performing on stage, radio, TV, film, and in various Vaudeville, burlesque, church basement, county fair, and sideshow....uh..."venues" for most of her 29 years. She is available for bookings for just about anything and can be reached at bruncheon@hotmail.com and on her website sybilbruncheon.com. She is a proud member of the Actors Equity Association and the Screen Actors Guild. Her erdo number is 16.

...funny how it unfolds, isn't it? Here in FOLLOW THE FLEET (1936), you have a young blonde(!), as yet "undiscovered" Lucille Ball, helping Harriet Hilliard (later Mrs. Ozzie Nelson!) a Ruby-Keeler-wanna-be, and Betty Grable, also an unknown just about to become everybody's iconic American Dream-Girl of World War II.

Twenty, count'em TWENTY years later, how different their lives were! Grable, basically retired from films, Hilliard/Nelson, the house-wife star of a B-rated TV sit-com with her blandly-talented husband Ozzie, and Lucille Ball, recognized worldwide as a comedic juggernaut and studio head worth millions on the so-called "little screen". The lesson?... I don't know... something about "luck", the right place, stick-to-it-tiveness, and... oh... whatever.
