Sherry Britton (Performer) | Playbill

Sherry Britton

Performer

She was good at stirring up controversy. She once performed at a club two blocks from the Eisenhower White House, and Robert Moses banned her from the 1964 World's Fair. She had many gentlemen suitors, including Rex Harrison, according to her account. Her unpublished memoir was titled "The Stripper, by the Hon. Brigadier General Sherry Britton," in reference to being named an honorary brigadier general by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in thanks for entertaining the troops during World War II.
