Vaudeville Performer.
Began entertaining in her teens and staged shows in a town barn. Early in life she became a proficient pianist and songwriter. When still a teen, she went to New York City to visit relatives and there sang in a Masonic event where she was heard by talent scouts for both the Victor and Edison recording companies. In 1906, as a contralto comedienne, Helen made Victor discs and Edison cylinders. Her recordings, which were enormously successful, ushered her into big-time vaudeville, where she became a headliner. On one tour she traveled with Georgie Jessel who at 14 wanted Helen to become his partner. In the 1920s she teamed up with younger sister Josephine. The Trix Sisters toured Europe as major stars and operated a cabaret in Paris. In London they made a large number of recordings for HMV and Columbia which sold well all over Europe. After the sister act broke up due to Josephine's marriage, Helen held regular jobs but continued to write songs, the last in 1951, the year she died at age 65.

Over the the last few months I've been working on an SL home for my RL wife. She wanted something that had the feel of Inara's companion shuttle from Firefly but with more room. So I built a shuttle and created custom drapes/curtains, a few rugs and told her to decorate it as she saw fit. I added a few things and this is where we ended up. I need to learn how to set environments for everybody to experience
