Betty Broadbent (November 1, 1909 – March 28, 1983) also known as the “Tattooed Venus” was born on November 1, 1909 in Philadelphia. Broadbent’s interest in tattooing began at the age of fourteen, when, while working as a nanny in Atlantic City, she met Jack Redcloud on the boardwalk. Redcloud was covered in tattoos, which fascinated Broadbent. This fascination would lead Redcloud to introduce Broadbent to his tattoo artist, . In 1927, Wagner, alongside several other tattoo artists, including Tony Rhineagear, Joe Van Hart, and Red Gibbons, tattooed a bodysuit of over 565 tattoos on Broadbent.
