Fannie was the daughter of two actors -- Alice Kemp and John Henry "Harry" Brownridge/Bronridge. She grew up with her traveling actress mother and was performing on stage with her at a young age as "Little Fannie" or "Fannie Bronridge." After her mother's 1907 death, she continued performing on her own for a few years. The Arizona Republican described her performances as "simply delightful; she gives to her part all the tenderness, pathos and humor it requires" (10/22/08). The Tuscon Daily Citizen praised her "splendid ability" (7/1/08), and the El Paso Herald said she was "making a hit" and becoming "a favorite with El Pasoans" (5/30/10). The Arizona Republican reported that she "brought the house down" with her performance of the song "Gee Whiz, Sweety, I'm Dead Stuck on You" (5/5/11).
In July 1909, Albert Adler purchased the Clifton Airdome in Tucson Arizona, where Fannie then performed. They married that month in the city. By 1915, the couple had moved to New York City. By 1930, they had moved to Great Neck in Long Island, NY. Albert was recorded in the census as managing a dress factory in 1930 and selling dresses in 1940.
