Hi everyone! I have loved old films since I was a small child and would tap dance around the culdesac of my street in Los Angeles hoping that a director would drive by and discover me. I later became a Theater Arts major. I put my dreams of acting aside when I became a mother and my children became my main focus. As fate would have it my eldest daughter became a child actor and played Keanu Reeves little sister in the film River's Edge. My second husband was an Emmy winning lighting director and screen writer. I have always been on the peripheral of the entertainment industry and it gives me great pleasure to post pictures and information about old Hollywood which I hope you enjoy. Please feel free to not only follow but make any comments that you would like on my website.

During the studio system, it was unheard of for an actor to refuse a part, because doing so often had severe consequences. In fact, Bette Davis was suspended by Warner Brothers for turning down roles.
