I've heard it said that the entertainer DInah Sore was bi-racial, but, she tried hard to keep it a secret. Does anyone have any information that will support or negate this?

The rumor of Dinah Shore having been of a possible
Mixed-Race lineage has been in circulation for decades.
Meanwhile -- entertainer Carol Channing -- was, in fact.
of a Mixed-Race lineage -- and kept it secret for years.

Dinah Shore died a few years back. Actually she was of Jewish extraction

She was white and Jewish. I have never heard that she was of African American heritage.

My mother told me that how they found out she was mixed was because the baby she had with husband Burt Reynolds came out dark, he divorced her thinking she had an affair, I'm not sure how accurate this is, but I have also heard that there are dark Jews and that's why some racists would refer to Jews as "Sand N****Rs" (I hate the word, therefore, I won't write it out. Possibly the baby was just dark due to the Jewish in her?

I don't think so, she looks pretty white to me anyway. Even if she was bi-racial, she wouldn't make it into the business that easily.
RIP Dinah

No. Her parents were jewish immigrants who moved here (Winchester Tennessee) from Russia. Here's a good article about her if you care to read it. Wow she sure was beautiful.
