Sanderson, Julia [née Julia Sackett] (1887–1975), singer and actress. The doll-faced beauty, who was the leading musical star between the heydays of Lillian Russell and Marilyn Miller, was born in Springfield, Massachusetts, and was the daughter of a popular actor, Albert Sackett. She made her debut as a child in Philadelphia with Forepaugh's Stock Company. After serving a five-year apprenticeship there she appeared in the chorus of several musicals before her big break came as De Wolf Hopper's leading lady in a 1904 revival of Wang. Important roles followed in both New York and London before she achieved stardom with her performance in The Arcadians (1910). Sanderson's other successes included The Siren (1911); The Sunshine Girl (1913); The Girl from Utah (1914), in which she introduced "They Didn't Believe Me"; Sybil (1916); Rambler Rose (1917); and The Canary (1918). In many of these shows she was co-starred with Donald Brian and Joseph Cawthorn. So popular was the trio that George M. Cohan saluted them with the song "Julia, Donald and Joe" in The Cohan Revue of 1916. After playing in Hitchy Koo, 1920, she joined her husband, Frank Crumit, in her last Broadway success, Tangerine (1921). Sanderson later toured in prominent roles in No, No, Nanette (1925) and Oh, Kay! (1927), then played with Crumit in vaudeville before retiring from the stage. Although she had a fine voice and was exceptionally comely, she lacked the verve and exploitive sex appeal of her contemporaries, either Lillian Russell or Marilyn Miller.
