Gracie Fields: A Symbol of Morale and Entertainment during WWII This evocative cover image from The Tatler magazine, dated September 16, 1939, features the beloved British singer and actress, Gracie Fields. Known affectionately as "Our Gracie" by millions, Fields is captured here in a poignant moment as she makes her first broadcast of the Second World War before an attentive audience of soldiers and national service workers. The backdrop of the war, which had just begun, adds a somber yet hopeful tone to the scene. Gracie Fields, with her infectious spirit and captivating voice, was an integral part of the British morale-boosting efforts during this tumultuous time. Her performances brought joy and comfort to the troops and the public, offering a much-needed distraction from the harsh realities of war. The Tatler, a prestigious British magazine, recognized the importance of Fields' role in maintaining the spirits of the nation during these trying times. This cover image serves as a testament to her enduring influence and the power of entertainment to uplift and inspire. Gracie Fields' career spanned over five decades, and she remains a cherished figure in British popular culture. Her legacy as a singer, actress, and entertainer continues to resonate with audiences today, reminding us of the transformative power of art and the human spirit in the face of adversity.
