Born April 26, 1933, in San Antonio, Texas. Her father, Joseph Burnett, and mother, Ina Louise Burnett, were both often unemployed, and the family lived most of the time on welfare. Burnett was raised primarily by her maternal grandmother, Mabel Eudora White. Her parents divorced in the late 1930s, and Burnett and her grandmother moved to an apartment near her mother’s in an impoverished area of Hollywood, California. Her father and mother, both alcoholics, died in 1954 and 1957 respectively.

We’ve loved Carol Burnett forever, and that’s why we bought tickets for the show. However, due to the cancelation and rescheduling, it has become difficult for our whole party to make the rescheduled date in Chicago. The ticketing entity will not refund the tickets. I’m just telling you this because I feel Carol should know the people who are representing her in Chicago. I’m pretty sure that she would not appreciate this policy.. by the way, happy birthday Carol.
