You would think the highlight of a 70 year old establishment like Hackney’s Restaurant in Illinois would be their infamous Hackneyburger. Well, every Friday night that burger takes a back seat to a special 93 year old woman named Dorothy Olson.

I’ve been visiting Hackney’s since I was about 10, and to this day I have never seen anyone captivate an audience quite like Dorothy does, especially for her age.

Dorothy, who is legally blind, takes a taxi to and from the restaurant every weekend. She changes hats while playing & knows everything from My Fair Lady to New York, New York. She also had more men behind her at the piano then you could imagine

Watch JustJess and Dorothy to see what this 93 year old star is like in action and what makes her so special!

Cheers,

JustJess
