Fifi was from San Francisco, and her real name was Rose Westlake. Her thick and luxuriant hair had the appearance of a sheep's wool.

She started in the business in the 1930s, and by 1936 had her own show, running a display ad in The Billboard:

WESTLAKE'S CONGRESS OF WONDERS
NOTE-A Clean Orgonized Side-Show at Liberty for Coming Season.
For Last Season's Success, and to CAD HILL, whose Banners Made That Success Possible.
ROSE, "FIFI" WESTLAKE, P. C. S. A., Los Angeles, Calif.
