Born in New York City of Filipino-Irish heritage, Racimo attended the
High School of Performing Arts, Juilliard and Columbia University. She
would later write about her show business roots: “My mother was a dancer
and my father a musician. You know the expression ‘born in a trunk’ –
my mother placed me in the bottom drawer of her steamer trunk – long
enough so that my parents could honestly quote that expression about how
I began. I still have that trunk in storage.”
According to her obituary site she was 76. Other sources say she was 69.
