One datapoint: I know about Streisand because of the Streisand Effect.

Make that 2. I knew about the effect for years before I learned who she was.

Streisand was 22 in 1964 when her career kicked-off with Funny Girl. I think she (like Marvin Hamlisch) was more popular with the 'Silent Generation' (1928-45).
