I wasn't quite sure where to post this, so I decided to make a new post.

"American Masters" on PBS will show a documentary, Mae West:  The Dirty Blonde, on June 16 (at least in my part of the world).

Which makes me wonder which Broadway luminaries (if any) you would like to see profiled on "American Masters".
