Shirley LaVada Hall Bass (December 9, 1932 – August 27, 1998) was an American dancer, vocalist, choreographer, and educator who performed across the United States and Canada with the all-female dance, vocal, and acrobatic act the Dyerettes from 1946-1960. The Dyerettes toured with Count Basie, Nat King Cole, Sammy Davis Jr., Duke Ellington, Tito Puente, and others. The Dyerettes served as house openers at New York City’s Apollo Theater in Harlem from 1954-1958. In 1960, after the death of her mentor, Sammy Dyer, Hall took over the Sammy Dyer School of Dancing, training generations of Chicago dancers. Hall Bass also established a cultural exchange program between the Dyer School and the Bahamas, and became a founding director of that country’s National Dance Company.
