In a number of stage revues, she danced, sang, and excelled in sketch comedy. She came to New York in 1918 after winning a couple of beauty contests. She was eventually hired by Florenz Ziegfield to appear in the chorus of Sally, which opened at the New Amsterdam Theatre on December 21, 1920. It ran for two years. In 1941 she came to appear in a version of George White's Scandals at the State Lake Theatre. She became seriously ill with a liver complaint brought on by her drinking and died. There have been two films on her life story: a 1957 Playhouse 90 drama, The Helen Morgan Story and the feature film The Helen Morgan Story (also in 1957), starring Ann Blyth.
