Talented Tuesday: Geraldine Boe


My maternal grandfather's sister Geraldine "Jerry" Boe was a dancer. She danced at the Kit-Kat Club in St. Louis, Missouri. In the 1930s, she was a professional stage dancer at the Oriental Theatre in Chicago, Illinois, and then danced at the Chez Paree nightclub in Chicago until September 1940. She was a member of the Chez Paree Adorables. Jerry was mentioned in the "Openers" section of the Chicago Tribune, 15 February 1976, which is about her friend Lorraine Dehner, another Chez Paree Adorable.
