Hope Dare (born Rose Lutzinger, 1909 - 1999). American dancer and showgirl.
When she was seventeen she moved to Los Angeles and married David Swing Ricker, a forty-seven year old promoter. She was named "Miss Southern California" in a beauty contest and danced in the Fanchon & Marco stage shows. Tragically, her husband David died following an appendectomy in 1929. Soon after Hope moved to New York City and appeared in the Broadway show Melody. She adopted a stage name — Hope Dare — that expressed her optimistic outlook on the world, with a nod to life’s challenges and her readiness to take them on.
Hope also starred in the 1932 film She Wanted A Millionaire. In 1934 she started dancing with the Ziegfeld Follies and fell in love with Richard "Dixie" Davis, a married mobster.
After he got a divorce, they were married in 1939. The couple had two children and opened an ice-cream store in Los Angeles.
