Mimi Hines—legendary singer, comedian, television personality, and Broadway performer who famously replaced Barbra Streisand in the original cast of Funny Girl—passed away on Monday, October 21, at age 91 of natural causes. Mark Sendroff, Hines’ longtime attorney, confirmed her demise in a statement to various US media houses, noting she died peacefully at her home in Las Vegas. Born in Vancouver, Canada, in 1933, Hines showed an interest in showbiz at a very young age. By 12, she was already performing in nightclubs. Who knew then that she would go on to make a name for herself in the industry as part of the duo Ford and Hines, alongside the late actor and comic Phil Ford? The pair met in 1952 while working in different nightclubs in Alaska. They began working together when Ford’s female partner accidentally broke her ankle, and Hines, then 19, stepped in as a substitute. Love soon followed, and the pair married within two years of meeting in 1954. ALSO READ: ‘Its Fun To Work…’: Harrison Ford Reveals What Drives Him To Act …
