The woman known as "Axis Sally" was actually Mildred Gillars -- born in Portland, Maine in 1900. She was an aspiring actress who ended up in Greenwich Village in the late twenties, hoping to crash the stage.

By 1934, she had settled in Berlin, where she eked out a living as a translator and dabbled at bit parts in German films.
