Blanche Ring (24 April 1871 – 13 January 1961) was an American singer and actress in Broadway shows and musicals.
But You Are, Blanche
In 1902 she made her Broadway debut and introduced to the public the new song "In the Good Old Summertime." -- Wikipedia
Blanche Ring, who had her big success
Before the First World War,
Enjoyed her life, without much press,
For several decades more.
If you don’t know her name, don’t stress,
Or blame yourself therefóre,
But if you do, then I would guess
You've seen the vintage score.
