The actress and singer Doris Day is one of the few
surviving stars of Hollywood's golden age. She made
her debut in show-business in 1939 and gave her
final screen appearance in 1986 hosting her own TV
chat show. Thereafter, she retired from the
limelight to focus her attention on her two animal
welfare organisations...
The "Discovering Doris" website
enables you to do just that. You'll find information
here about Ms. Day's career as a singer and actress.
That's over 100 pages which detail her music career
of over 600 songs,
culminating in 28 original albums and 76 charting
singles (30 of these were "Top 20" American hit
singles - many were also charted world-wide) and her
work as an actress of 39
motion pictures, two television variety specials and
154 episodes of two television series.
My hope is by the time you finish
exploring this website you will have an all-new
understanding to why Ms. Day is a GRAMMY award
winning recording artist and also the most
successful female movie star of the late 1950s and
early 1960s having been a consistent #1 box office
attraction and also a recipient of 6 Golden Globe
awards for many of her acclaimed roles.
As the webmaster of this site I want to thank
everyone who has supported this site and continued
to visit it over the last 10 years. You have
motivated me to continue developing it and I hope
you continue to enjoy discovering Doris as much as I have.
By the
way, if you like the music clips which play when you
open this website you can buy these songs on the 3CD
set I produced for SonyBMG entitled "Doris
Day - Her Life In Music".
