Olympe BradnaFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaAntoinette Olympe Bradna (12 August 1920 – 5 November 2012) was a French dancer and actress, who emigrated to the United States where she lived for the rest of her life.Early years[edit]Bradna was born in a dressing room in the Olympic Theatre in Paris,[2] and her full name was Antoinette Olympe Bradna. Her father, Joseph Bradna, was a Bohemian Czech and her mother, Jana Bradna, was Austrian German. (Another source says that her mother was French.)[3] They were circus performers before Olympe began her career.[4] (Jana Bradna had been an opera singer before she joined her husband in the circus.)[3] Her aunt Ella Bradna also was in the circus, as an equestrienne.[5] An item in a newspaper in 1936 reported that Bradna "followed a line of trained dogs on the stage in France, when she was only 18 months old."[6]Dancing[edit]Bradna appeared at 18 months of age with her parents, who were world-famous bare back riders. By the time she was 8, Bradna "had attracted so much attention that agents were anxious to book her as a 'single.'"[3] Her parents accompanied her to Sweden, Norway, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, and France as she danced. She performed "an acrobatic dance" in the Paris, France, production of Hit the Deck.[3]Later she joined the Folies Bergère.[7] She was with that group for eight months and danced at the French Casino in New York City for eight more months.[3]She danced in Stockholm, New York City, and other world capitals I ACCEPT PAYPAL ONLY FOR PAYMENT PLEASE !
