Photographer took photo of Las Vegas showgirl posing in shape of mushroom cloud in 1957 .
Robert Friedrichs first set out to find her in 2000 ; it took him more than two decades to find out her true identity.
She was once a lead dancer at the Sands Hotel's Copa showroom, a frequent haunt of the Rat Pack and mobsters.
Her photograph is one of the most requested of the 7.5 million images kept in Las Vegas .
