A Grand Lady

Normally this blog is reserved to show photos of circus personalities who have been active from the year 2000 to the present. This posting is an exception because it is dedicated to an exceptional lady, Helen Belleti Warburton. Helen started her circus career at age sixteen and became a top mounter with the Belleti high wire troupe; an act that toured with various circuses during the 1930's and 40's. 
Helen passed away on November 11, 2014 at age 100. She was a personal friend, a dedicated circus fan and one who's wit and charm will be missed by many.
