The essay considers the life and career of British cabaret singer Hedli Anderson, whose work and influence has been largely forgotten today. She was the first lucrative English-born cabaret artist, and helped to popularize the cabaret genre during the 1930s and 1940s, previously a European continental phenomenon, in Great Britain.
Hedli Anderson. Actress: Colonel Bogey. Hedli Anderson was born on 25 May 1907 in Surrey, England, UK. She was an actress, known for Colonel Bogey (1948), Hullo, Fame! (1940) and Musical Contrasts (1946). She was married to Louis MacNeice. She died on 3 February 1990 in Paris, France.
At the end of the year, MacNeice started a relationship with Hedli Anderson and they were married in July 1942, three months after the death of his father. Brigid Corinna MacNeice (known by her second name like her parents, or as "Bimba") was born a year later.
