Pudgy
Roberts was in addition to being a female impersonator, was a bit
of an entrepreneur.
She was editor of the magazine "Female Mimics," and wrote
a book (1967) called
"The Female Impersonator's Handbook." I've not even seen
the cover of it, but it's
probably indeed FI tips. She also wrote two novels, and Avery Willard
(author of
the 1971 book, "Female Impersonation) made a short (6 minute)
film of her s impersonating
Bette Davis, Carol Channing, Tiny Tim, Marlene Dietrich, Lily Tomlin,
Judy Garland and
Barbra Streisand, in 1969.
Her
publication, "The Great Female Mimics"
