Personal Quote:

I always wanted to be in show business, even as a little girl. It was something that was ingrained in me. My aunt had a dramatic school and I started training when I was about seven. She taught me many things, including dancing. I danced with the St. Louis Opera when I was in my teens. See more »

Trivia:

Mayo was once termed "the most beautiful blonde in the world" and her beauty so impressed the Sultan of Morocco than seeing her was "tangible proof of the existence of God.". See more »
