Excerpt: Jeanne Elizabeth Crain (May 25, 1925 December 14, 2003) was an American actress. Crain was born in Barstow, California, to George A. Crain, a school teacher, and Loretta Carr; she was of Irish heritage on her mother's side, and of English and distant French descent on her father's. She moved to Los Angeles, California, as a young child. An excellent ice skater, Crain first attracted attention when she was crowned Miss Pan Pacific at the Pan-Pacific Auditorium in Los Angeles. Later, while still in high school, she was asked to make a screen test opposite Orson Welles. She did not get the part, but in 1943, at age 18, she appeared in a bit part in the film The Gang's All Here. In 1944, she starred in Home in Indiana and In the Meantime, Darling. Her acting was critically panned, but she gained nationwide attention. It resulted in landing the leading role in The Shocking Miss Pilgrim in October 1944, a musical film which was eventually shelved and made with Betty Grable. Crain first received critical acclaim when she starred in Winged Victory (1944). She co-starred in 1945 with Dana Andrews in the musical film State Fair, in which Louanne Hogan dubbed Crain's singing numbers. After that, Crain often had singing parts in films, and they were invariably dubbed, in most cases by Hogan. Also in 1945, Crain starred in Leave Her to Heaven with Gene Tierney. In early 1947, Crain remained busy, despite her pregnancy, and was cast in both a screen adaption of Helen Hunt Jackson's Ramona and in The Glass Menagerie. Ramona was eventually canned, The Glass Menagerie was shelved and eventually made with Jane Wyman in the lead. In 1949, Crain starred in three...More: http: //booksllc.net/?id=18383We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
