Holiday O'Hara
This golden living legend is a Boston girl gone bad! A fan of burlesque from an early age, Miss O'Hara began exploring that interest in earnest when she turned 18. The year was 1968 and Holiday began turning heads as a go-go dancer in Boston's wild and woolly Combat Zone. Holiday truly began to emerge when she started go-go dancing on Broadway in October 1968, and by 1970 she was learning to strip at The Chez Paree on Mason St. Thanks to Tori Lynn, Ellion Ness, Baby Doll, and Joni Love, she learned to walk, strut, spin, twirl, and master the fine art of how to be a lady and a strumpet at the same time!

In 1972 the beautiful city of San Francisco called her name and she began dancing at The New Action Follies and The Turk St Follies. That was also the year she hit the road and soon became infamous nation-wide as Holiday O'Hara: The Lady Who Loves to Love You. Also known as "The Heart of San Francisco," Miss O'Hara toured from coast to coast and half-way around the world. But she knew she would always return to where my heart was happiest--San Francisco!
