EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph captures a young Gladys Reese (later known as Gladys Reese Ahern) in the early stages of her illustrious career as an American vaudeville entertainer. Born in the late 19th century, Gladys' love for performing began at a young age, and she would go on to make a name for herself as a talented comedienne and singer. In this image, Gladys is seen as a child performer, already exhibiting the charisma and stage presence that would later make her a star. She is dressed in a cute and playful costume, with a bright smile that lights up her face. Her natural comedic timing is evident even in this early photograph. Gladys' professional journey began in earnest when she teamed up with her husband, Will Ahern, to form a comedy duo in 1919. Together, they brought laughter and joy to audiences across the United States for decades. Their act was known for its quick wit, clever humor, and delightful chemistry. This photograph is a precious reminder of the rich history of American vaudeville and the enduring talent of Gladys Reese Ahern.
