What a Beautiful Dedicated Video You put out on Her with a smooth kind sound track thank You she was beautiful. What a Doll of a Smile and I bet she was A good person to. Thanks Up loader.
Virginia danced in movie musicals from 1949 to 1953. She proved to be a graceful talented dancer but was also versatile in acting. Virginia could do drama westerns, comedy and historical movies. Nice Work Baz!

Early on, using her real name Virginia Jones, she played a straight woman in Vaudeville to a performing horse act. The "horse" was comprised of two man known as the Mayo Brothers; hence her stage name.
Talk about an actress who never got her due! Mayo's portrayal of James Cagney's trampy wife in "White Heat" makes her the hardest babe in all of Film Noir. Incredibly beautiful, often very funny, a fine dancer...it's just a shame she never seems to have gotten the one starring role that might have lifted her to iconic status. But for true movie buffs, her performances will always be something to treasure. Thanks so much for posting this!
Youtube has become a wonderful resource for discovering old memories.
In finding your tribute, it took me back to the fifties when I was 14 and "in Love" with Virginia.
Also as you say, she was a fine actress but at 14 that didn't matter much to me.
She had a wonderful figure ,fabulous legs and oh ! those eyes ! Seeing these pictures and her movies once again I can see why I was besotted.
congratulations on bringing this tribute together 1

She was great in "The Best Years of Our Lives" with an all-star cast. And a knock-out as Dana Andrews' saucy unfaithful wife.!
With Ronald Reagan in "The Girl from Jones Beach" she was a bombshell.
In westerns she excelled as in Colorado Territory with Joel McCray.
One of the top actresses of the forties

This is truly a lake of fire
that burns with desire,
And a cool and sensual flame
that can melt your desire,
She had sex appeal` and eye catching
curves, with all the luster and glitz
to follow.
Beautiful period for all women` because
it allowed a woman to be Beautiful.
