Biography :

Formerly known as "The Black Cats", The Blondells were composed by Mona Taylor, Martha Love and Ann Allen. However, it was after organizing the trio at Walker College in 1955 that the girls received their first big break. Local Kiwanians sent the girls to entertain at the International Kiwanis Convention in Convention Hall, Atlantic City. “Miss America” contestants have nothing on our gals.
