Alison Chambers has been the CAF Dixie Wing’s Betty Grable for 5 years. After seeing Alison at an event where she was portraying Marilyn Monroe, Pam Ellis – the Wing’s photographer- asked if Alison thought she could pull off Betty Grable. A few weeks later Alison was at WWII Days, and that was all she wrote. Elizabeth Ruth “Betty” Grable was an American actress, dancer, and singer. Grable was celebrated for having the most beautiful legs in Hollywood and studio publicity widely dispersed photos featuring them. Betty Grable was considered by many the most famous pinup girl from WWII. Betty was a favorite of American soldiers and had her legs insured for $1 million.
Alison has since produced USO shows for WWII Days and other events, started a group of singing American pinups – Bombshells United -, and currently travels the country portraying Betty Grable, Marilyn Monroe, and performing at air shows and veterans events. She is a singer, actress, and pinup model, and Alison also teaches voice lessons to local youth and teens.
