Her big break came when she was singing at a small night club in Beverly Hills called Ye Little Club. One night, after finishing her 25-minute act of nine songs with a three-piece combo, she was congratulated by Pierre Salinger (President John F. Kennedy's press secretary), who was accompanied by Patricia Kennedy Lawford and Patricia (Pat) Newcomb, Marilyn Monroe's last publicist. From that contact, she represented the United States at the Third International Music Festival, singing with a symphony orchestra one day and with a large jazz band the next in Poland, for which she received a special award. Lulu stated in an interview for the New York Times that she had been born in Youngstown, Ohio, and had settled in Los Angeles around 1955. She married the designer Bob Mackie March 14, 1960 and divorced in 1963. They shared a son. On March 8, 1964, she married her manager Jerry Fonarow in Las Vegas, Nevada.
