What did Glenn Miller do for Ray Anthony?
Ray Anthony's tenure with Glenn Miller was short and not very sweet. He was about 17 when he joined the trumpet section, and despite a good audition that won him the position his actual performances were very shaky. He left the band after a short period of time. As he matured and became a better musician, Ray Anthony traded heavily on his brief association with Glenn Miller, not to mention his strong resemblance to movie heart-throb Cary Grant. He released a number of Miller-styled albums during the period from the late 1940s to the early 1960s, and continued to lead an orchestra performing Miller-like swing into the 1980s and 90s.

What happened to the adopted children of Glenn Miller and Helen Burger Miller?
For the first few years after Glenn's disappearance she was actively involved in the corporations he had set up, primarily Glenn Miller Productions, and in working with his estate to re-launch the orchestra under the direction of lead saxophonist and vocalist Tex Beneke.She was also faced with raising their two adopted children alone, so as relations with the Beneke-led band deteriorated during the late 1940s she moved away from direct involvement with Glenn's music. In 1953 and 1954 she assisted with aspects of the biopic The Glenn Miller Story, starring Jimmy Stewart and June Allyson. There is speculation that her disagreements with Tex Beneke over the band's musical direction were in part responsible for the fact that he was entirely written out of the script.During the 1950s and early 60s Helen Miller was almost completely uninvolved with her late husband's music, except for giving occasional interviews to close friends such as biographer (and former Miller musician and confidant) George T. Simon. Notably, Simon refused to either deny or confirm the heartbreaking rumor that Helen had kept many of Glenn's personal effects in their bedroom and even prepared his bed every evening, just in case he should miraculously return ...Helen Burger Miller died in 1966 at age 64. Her passing was mentioned in some newspapers but received little other notice.She is buried in Mountain View Cemetery in Altadena, CA
