   Margie Hart, born on a farm near Edgerton, Missouri, gained fame as a stripper in St. Louis, but decided to go “legit” in the 1940s. She starred in one film, “Lure of the Islands” (1942) — “a movie that,” she later said, “set pictures back 20 years.” She isn’t in the “Hall of Famous Missourians” — yet. #missouri
