Jean Ackerman performed for Ziegfeld in the 1927 Follies, “Rosalie” and “Whoopee!” in 1928, “Midnight Frolic” in 1929 and “Smiles” in 1930. At some point during this time, she married Richard “Dick” Ackerman. Little is known about this marriage or the groom. Jean divorced him in January of 1930.

Although her run with the Follies only spanned four years, Jean always looked back on them as the best years of her life. Jean left New York and spent the final years of her life in Florida. She passed away from cancer on November 26, 1960 in Miami-Beach, just two weeks shy of her 57th birthday.
