She had a string of 80 charted popular hits lasting from 1940 into the late 1950s and after appearing in a handful of films went on to a four-decade career in American television starring in her own music and variety shows in the 1950s/60s and hosting two talk shows in the 1970s. After failing singing auditions for the bands of Benny Goodman and both Jimmy Dorsey and his brother Tommy Dorsey Shore struck out on her own to become the first singer of her era to achieve huge solo success. She reached the height of her popularity as a recording artist during the Big Band era of the 1940s and 1950s but achieved even greater success a decade later in television mainly as hostess of a series of variety programs for Chevrolet.
