Career
From 1931 to 1933, Little Ann Little made recordings for the "Betty Boop" cartoons and appeared in variety shows throughout the country. Rothschild got the job as the voice of Betty Boop as the result of a contest held by Paramount Pictures for a girl with a squeaky voice. She was also well suited for the role physically, being only four foot ten and weighing 100 pounds.
Little went on the road with the Fleischer Studios artist Pauline Comanor.
Ann would pose while Pauline drew her as Betty Boop. They both finished the act with a "boop-boop-a-doop."
She was also an Radio-Keith-Orpheum discovery and at one time had her own program on the National Broadcasting Company network as singer Little Ann Little.
