Born in San Francisco,[3] Gale rose to fame as part of the vaudeville act The Gale Sisters. She appeared on Broadway with her sisters in Flying High (1930) and George White's Scandals (1931).[4] In the early 1930s made her first films in Hollywood. This was originally as a Goldwyn Girl but gradually she rose to more notable parts, generally in B movies.
In December 1939, Gale married Oscar Levant in Fredericksburg, Virginia,[5] and they remained wed until his death in 1972. Later she married Henry Ephron.[6]
Gale was an integral part of two TV talk shows. After a disagreement led to her leaving her co-host role on The Oscar Levant Show, she began her own show.[6]

gollark: No, that's just it being stupid.
gollark: <@215941165785022464> Race conditions: the new bot is apparently now split into lots of bits, and if they aren't synchronized properly it might be possible to extract coins from the differences between them.
gollark: I wonder if there are any weird race conditions in it too.
gollark: It might not be *infinitely* actually, but definitely an odd quirk.
gollark: Okay, I just found another way to get (very small) amounts of money which a bot could trivially do in a loop or something. If this is deemed an issue there'll inevitably be a hacky "fix" for it, but the system is fundamentally broken.
