Mary Mack started traveling the burlesque circuits as a headliner in the late 1940s. Not sure if it has something to do with the moniker “The Naughty Girl Next Door”, but one of her acts included a prop house that could collapse and fold down for easy traveling. She lived outside of Louisville, KY and in 1953 opened a small diner, called the "Twig and Leaf", in Saint Matthews, KY.
