Penny Singleton (born Mariana Dorothy McNulty, September 15, 1908 –
November 12, 2003) was an American actress and labor leader. During her
60-year career, Singleton appeared as the comic-strip heroine Blondie
Bumstead in a series of 28 motion pictures from 1938 until 1950 and the
popular Blondie radio program from 1939 until 1950. Singleton also provided
the voice of Jane Jetson in the animated series The Jetsons from 1962–1963.
Behind the scenes, Singleton served two terms as president of the American
Guild of Variety Artists, and testified before a Senate subcommittee in 1962
on the union's treatment of women variety workers.
Singleton sang at a silent movie theater, and toured in vaudeville as part
of an act called "The Kiddie Kabaret". She sang and danced with Milton
Berle, whom she knew since childhood, and actor Gene Raymond, and appeared
on Broadway in Jack Benny's The Great Temptations. She also toured in
nightclubs and road shows of plays and musicals.
Singleton appeared as a nightclub singer in After the Thin Man, credited as
Dorothy McNulty. She was cast opposite Arthur Lake (as Dagwood) in the
feature film Blondie in 1938, based on the comic strip by Chic Young. They
repeated their roles on a radio comedy beginning in 1939 and in guest
appearances on other radio shows. As Dagwood and Blondie Bumstead, they
proved so popular that a succession of 27 sequels was made from 1938 until
1950, with the radio show ending the same year. Singleton's husband Robert
Sparks produced 12 of these sequels. Also in 1950, she had her own program,
The Penny Singleton Show, on NBC radio.
Singleton held top billing in Go West, Young Lady (1941), over her male
co-star, Glenn Ford. Only two other female stars (Dorothy Page and Jane
Frazee) were top-billed singing cowgirls at the time. She provided the voice
of Jane Jetson in the 1962–63 animated series, The Jetsons.
