Jane Wyman

Jane Wyman was an American singer, dancer, filmtelevision actress and philanthropist, whose career spanned seven decades. She had also appeared as a guest on several talk and variety shows, and as a panelist on several game shows.

The youngest of three children, Jane Wyman was born Sarah Jane Mayfield in St. Joseph, Missouri. Although her birthdate has been widely reported for many years as January 4, 1914, research by biographers and genealogists indicates she was born on January 5, 1917. The most likely reason for the 1914 year of birth is that she added to her age so as to be able to work and act while still a minor. She may have moved her birthday back by one day to Januaryso as to share the same birthday as her daughter, Maureen . The 1920 census, though, has her at three and living in Philadelphia. After Wymans death, a release posted on her official website confirmed these details.
