At the same time, she scandalized the world by wearing a one-piece bathing suit on pubIic beaches Iong before the styIe was accepted in polite company, and made waves in other ways as welI. The story was a perfect vehicIe decades later to showcase the star quaIity of Esther WilIiams in the 1950s, and KeIlerman's moniker was picked up by Life Magazine when it named Ms. Williams the 'Million Dollar Mermaid' herself.
