  • The Kim Loo Sisters were an American jazz vocal quartet popular during the swing era. The close harmony group consisted of Alice (August 22, 1916 - April 16, 2011 ), Margaret “Maggie” (November 4, 1917 - July 14, 2016) Genevieve “Jenée” (May 19, 1920 - November 3, 2019) and Patricia “Bubbles” (October 3, 1922). Just Us Girls (Four Seasons Press, 2015) by Leslie Li is the official companion book to The Kim Loo Sisters documentary. It comprises interviews of all four sisters, both individually and collectively and includes over 50 color and black and white photographs. The book tells the story of the four sisters’ lives and careers from early childhood in Minnesota during the Roaring Twenties, to appearing in vaudeville theaters across the country during the Great Depression, to performing on the Broadway stage, the Hollywood silver screen and overseas during the Second World War. The sisters began their careers as child entertainers in kiddie revues in and around their hometown of Minneapolis, Minnesota during the Jazz Age (1920 - 1929). They traveled with the vaudeville circuits during the Great Depression (1929 - 1939). During the Second World War (1939 - 1945), they appeared on the Broadway stage and the Hollywood screen with actors including Frank Sinatra, Ann Miller, The Three Stooges, Jackie Gleason, and Louis Jordan. Dubbed “the Chinese Andrews Sisters,” the Kim Loo Sisters were arguably the first Asian American act to star in Broadway musical revues. (en)
