Jeanie Tomanini

[Nancy]

Jeanie Tomanini was the female version of Johnny Eck -- the famous Half-Girl.

Since "Freaks" was in the 1930s when she became famous also, I wondered why they never asked her to be in the movie alongside with Johnny Eck?

Interesting....I sure wish most people wouldn't see her as a 'freak', afterall, she's a human being, her needs may differ from others...sad to know she passed on in '99. Never heard or knew anything about her til now. Thanks for sharing with AD'ers.
