BIOGRAPHY:

Georgia Brown (then Lillian Klot) was sent to Wales with other youngsters to escape the German Blitzkrieg.

TRIVIA:

Daughter of Mark and Anne (Kirshenbaum) Klot.
A permanent resident of the United States, Brown died at age 59 during a visit to London due to complications during emergency surgery to remove an intestinal obstruction.
A lover of jazz, she selected her professional name from the 1925 tune "Sweet Georgia Brown".
The role of Nancy in "Oliver!" was originally written with author 'Lionel Bart' (qv)'s friend Alma Cogan in mind, but Alma was unable to commit to the role, although she did record a soundtrack recording of "Oliver!" Georgia later replaced 'Rachel Roberts (I)' (qv) in the title role of Bart's musical "Maggie May" in 1965.
Once shared a London flat with jazz singer 'Annie Ross' (qv) in the early 50s and initially was a member (along with Ross) of the jazz vocal group called Lambert, Hendricks, Ross & Brown. She left abruptly after a very short time and the group later went on to fame as simply Lambert, Hendricks & Ross.
Was twice nominated for Broadway's Tony Awards as Best Actress (Musical): in 1963 for "Oliver!" and in 1990 for a revival of "Threepenny Opera."
Recorded several solo albums, including The Many Shades of Georgia Brown and Georgia Brown Sings Gershwin.
Was educated at The Central Foundation Grammar School, London.
