Cassie Walmer was the bi-racial daughter of George and Stephanie Schmidt Muller Walmer. At age 3 Cassie began her career on stage by appearing in what was called an "Uncle Tom's Cabin Show" in Leicester in 1891. According to Jeffrey Green, author of: "Black Women In Britain 1850-1897", theatrical performances by Black women had become fashionable. The wealthy Duchess of Sutherland had sponsored several Black female performers over the years.

Cassie had several half siblings from her mother's first marriage. Her father died when she was young, leaving Stephanie a single mother.

At a young age, Cassie developed her talents as a comedian, dancer and singer, and grew up into a beautiful young woman. She successfully performed in Vaudeville shows in England in 1899 and 1900 at ages 11 and 12.

It is shocking now to read the newspapers of the turn of the centry as they describe upcoming performances. The articles of the time use racial slurs as a matter of fact in describing the entertainments (in positive terms) that were being offered in Liverpool, Glasgow, Bradford and Blackburn. They described Cassie as: "Cassie Walmer in her latest coon songs", "...coon songstress and dancer", "Black Princess", "..coloured vocalist and dancer". All people of color were described in the same manner.

Cassie later signed on with performer-turned-promoter, Harry Rickards of "Rickards Vaudeville Company". By 1907 she was traveling to Australia and New Zealand with the Company. She then returned to fulfill a contract in England. One of her most famous songs, produced by her was "Moving Day".

In 1911 Cassie married Mr. Joseph Edward Louisson, a native of England. She later married Mr. Robson.

Cassie died at age 92 in Camden, England.
