Donna in the News
101 Years Ago
by Don Taylor
“Donna in the News” reports newly found newspaper articles and advertisements regarding my grandmother, Madonna Montran (aka Donna Montran and Donna Darling). I am always excited when I find a new venue for my grandmother’s exciting show business career of the 1910s and 1920s.
This week, from the Birmingham Post (Birmingham, AL) dated Nov 5, 1923, I learned that Donna played at the Lyric Theatre in Birmingham, Alabama, on November 5th, 6th, & 7th, 1923.
