Beverly and Jeannie Baxter


   The Baxter sisters entered showbiz at the age of eight, as a song and dance team on local television. They were quickly signed to C.B.I.P. and began cranking out a series of cartoons for children. As they matured, the girls began scoring more glamorous parts and the studio began casting them as solo stars as well as in the occasional cartoon which still featured them as a team. Beverly, on the left, is the more assertive of the pair and admits to having a short temper and a swelled head most of the time. Jeannie is rather more timid, given to occasional clumsiness which has kept her from taking on roles as showy as those which Beverly delights in. Jeannie is an intelligent girl with technological aptitude which has found her valuable behind the camera. For all her smarts and general sweetness, she is prone to being scatterbrained at times. Jeannie's cartoons tend to be more subdued than those of Beverly, who delights in the spotlight and teasing the camera. The girls share a quaint suburban house near the studio. Beverly frequently leaps before looking, but remains held in check by the presence of sweet Jeannie -who always manages to keep the bigger picture in frame.
