Archive material and source history

Judy Garland was born Frances Ethel Gumm in 1922 and started performing in vaudeville shows with her two older sisters as a child. At 13, she signed with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and began her film career. Her voice on 'Over the Rainbow' from the 1939 film 'The Wizard of Oz' became what people remembered most, though she recorded hundreds of other songs including 'Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas' and 'Get Happy'.

She worked with performers like Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly at MGM, but the studio's pressure to maintain a certain image contributed to health problems that followed her. Garland kept performing through the 1950s and 1960s, including a well-received concert at Carnegie Hall in 1961.

She died in 1969 at 47. The emotional clarity in her singing, especially on songs like 'Over the Rainbow' and 'By Myself,' made her voice distinctive even amid the difficulties in her life.
