Biography
Shirley Kellogg (b. 1888) starred in four Broadway musicals between 1908 and 1912, and issued many early recordings for Columbia. Her influence was greatest in Britain, however, where she did much to popularize new music from across the Atlantic. In 1912, Kellogg starred in Hullo Ragtime, with a script written by her husband, Albert de Courville. The English musicians resisted playing in the ragtime style, some of them declaring that it was "not music," but it proved a hit with London audiences. Two years later, with Ethel Levey (George M. Cohan's wife) she appeared there in Hullo Tango, popularizing the Argentinian dance craze.
