I thought...I've been totally loving your posts! I thought you may be interested in an article I found at Newspapers.com today. It's located here https://www.newspapers.com/clip/3399854/first_female_photographer_ruth_harriet/ and says that she and her husband were getting ready to adopt a child until they found out she was pregnant. Besides the odd fact that if she had adopted only sooner she may have escaped death, another odd one is that the child she was to adopt was one that Jack Benny had planned on adopting too, but also did not because his wife became pregnant. <br /><br />That poor child! <br /><br />Anyway, I noticed that this is mentioned nowhere else, except in a number of newspapers on that same day. It appears to be a lost fact about her.<br /><br />Cheers!Magnolia Southhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05027695915193365483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7570637570822170944.post-28139332162511222972011-10-15T16:09:17.191-05:002011-10-15T16:09:17.191-05:00Of the two marked as Joan Crawford, the one on the...Of the two marked as Joan Crawford, the one on the bottom looks like Kay Francis to me.

Ruth Harriet Louise took some of my favorite photos of my favorite silent actors and actresses. I wonder, however, if the photo you have captioned as Marion Davies is in fact Aileen Pringle.whistlingypsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06126688373252306609noreply@blogger.com
