Dagmar (born Virginia Ruth Egnor, November 29, 1921 – October 9, 2001) was an American actress, model and television personality of the 1950s. As a statuesque, busty blonde, she became the first major female star of television, receiving much press coverage during that decade.
Born in Yawkey, West Virginia, she went to high school in Huntington, West Virginia where she was known as Ruthie. She attended Huntington Business School and worked at Walgreens as a cashier, waitress, sandwich maker and soda jerk.

This firm was a small car producer, but was also the world's largest builder of pipe organs, the M.P. Moller company. The first Dagmars were made in 1922, and although the last Crawfords were sold in 1923, the Dagmar continued until 1927.
