Jane Green was a popular singer and broadway actress in the 1920s. Born Martha Jane Greene on January 2, 1897 in Kentucky, Jane was the youngest of four children - the rest were brothers. Her parents were divorced in 1905 after which her mother Belle moved the family to Los Angeles to get a fresh start. In 1911 Jane and her brother Fred became known as "Those Kentucky Kids" and entertained on Spring Street in LA. Jane’s mother, being part Cherokee Indian, had taught her to be proud of her Indian heritage resulting in Jane’s appearances in rodeos as a championship trick horse rider.
