Sophie Tucker immigrated to the United States and settled with her family in Hartford, Connecticut, where she helped out at her parents' kosher diner and rooming house. Surrounded by theater performers at a young age, Tucker began singing for her customers. After a failed marriage, Tucker moved to New York and got a vaudeville job. First performing in blackface, she soon began singing the songs that made her famous, including "Some of These Days" and "My Yiddishe Momma," throughout the world. She performed in several films in the 1930s and 1940s. Tucker challenged stereotypes of age, size and gender and one historian has labeled her a feminist of pop culture.
