Betty Rowland - Burlesque's "Ball Of Fire" Classic Burlesque Stripper Strip

Betty Rowland - One of burlesque's biggest stars, Rowland earned the moniker "Ball of Fire," for her flaming red hair and her bump-and-grind routine. She once sued Liz's grandfather, Hollywood producer Samuel Goldwyn, for using Ball of Fire as a title for a Howard Hawks' picture starring Barbara Stanwyck and Gary Cooper (the lawsuit was dropped for lack of evidence). And it is revealed that renowned costume designer Edith Head used one of Betty's gowns as "inspiration" for Stanwyck's nightclub-singer attire in the film.
