Rosalinde Fuller
Rosalinde Fuller (16 February 1892 – 15 September 1982) was a British actress, born as Rosalind Ivy Fuller.〔Coursen p. 80〕
==Early life==
Rosalind Ivy Fuller was the third of four daughters born to a Portsmouth draper, whose eldest child was a son, Walter (born 1881). Behind the draper’s shop was a hall in which Mr Fuller organized free public entertainment on Sunday afternoons, having his daughters recite, sing and play various instruments – the oldest girl learned the harp, for instance. Rosalind, who was called Ivy by her family until she was 21, when she opted for her first given name, always disliked having to perform on stage because she suffered agonies of self-consciousness.〔Winnington p.4〕
Having foolishly underwritten a friend’s research, Mr Fuller was made bankrupt in 1908, and Walter (who was editing periodicals in London) became financially responsible for the family. He had always encouraged his eldest sister to collect and learn folksongs; in 1911, she and Rosalind visited Cecil Sharp, the great collector of folksongs, and sang him some. He was entranced and immediately had them demonstrate for him, first at the Festival of Empire and then at the Stratford-upon-Avon Summer School of Folksong and Dance.〔''Musical Times'', 1 October 1911, p.654.〕 Visiting Americans exclaimed how charming they sounded, and they formed a project of going to the United States to perform over there.〔Winnington p.61〕
