fourteen (14) in show biz, where she
was employed fo r K F I ra d io station
as a singer. She, along w ith her tw o
sisters, perform ed a weekly series o f
Negro spirituals and gospels. As a
high school student, she and other
m usically inclined students form ed a
band and perform ed fo r m any night
club in the Los Angeles area where
she was lead singer.
As a result o f her perform ances in
this band, she was able to sign w ith
the W illia m M o rris A g e n cy as a
dancer, along w ith a male dancing

In 1960, A lyce was an au to m o b ile
victim . A n in ju ry to her knee ended

dancer. She moved to P o rtla n d and
reassumed her career goals.
C o m m u n ity in v o lv e m e n t on the
grassroots level has always been her
second lo ve , so she proceeded to
seek career o p p o r tu n itie s in th is
