From the back cover: Art and Dotty Todd are two of the nicest people you will ever want to meet. You will find their fans, literally, around the world. They have appeared in The Bahamas, The Hawaiian Islands, Hong Kong, Nassau, and Japan. Wherever they go, they make lasting friendships. And both the Todds are what you might call "born talents."
Dotty studied classical music at an early age, and by the time she was twelve she was playing concert piano and had also won herself a scholarship to music school. Her first job in show business was as a band vocalist in Salt Lake City. Later she met and married Art, and they became a team, scoring a big hit record with a tune titled "My Happiness." Together, they have appeared many times on "The Ed Sullivan Show," and the shows of Arthur Godfrey and Steve Allen.
Art Todd started playing banjo and singing on radio at the tender age of fourteen. After completing his education, he devoted his life to music, and has met with great success. Art, incidentally, is an excellent golfer, having won fourteen tournaments. – Ira Cook - KMPC - Hollywood, California
