She was named after her maternal grandmother <a href="https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/86118679/francis-lillian-sentek">Francis Sentek</a>. Her <span style="text-align: left;">grandparents had come to America from Germany, Poland, and Norway. Carole's </span><span style="text-align: left;">father <a href="https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/86117689/alfred-leonard-ridste">Alfred Ridste</a> was a railroad worker and her mother <a href="http://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2011/10/remembering-clara-ridste.html">Clara Sentek Ridste</a> was a housewife. She</span><span style="text-align: left;"> had four older siblings - Lawrence, Lewis, Jerome, and Dorothy</span><span style="text-align: left;">. Sadly her <a href="http://findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSmpid=47871252&GRid=98689677&">brother Jerome</a> had died in 1917 after being burned by boiling water.</span><span style="text-align: left;"> </span><span style="text-align: left;">In the Spring of 1919 the family moved to Denton, Montana. Clara began having a relationship with Charles Fenner, a longtime family friend. She filed for divorce and <a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gWumv4gS3RA/V0C2PgERO5I/AAAAAAAAW_Y/Lawr7NfsgEgCpXMNJvC2Opro1Qi6j0fQQCLcB/s1600/ridstefenner.jpg">Alfred sued Charles</a> for alienation of affection. The divorce became so messy that Carole and her siblings were put in Foster care for a short time. There is speculation that </span><a href="https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/98759998/charles-e-fenner" style="text-align: left;">Charles Fenner</a><span style="text-align: left;"> may be Carole's biological father. </span>Clara married Charles in December of 1919 but the marriage only lasted eighteen months.</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>

In the Fall of 1933 Carole started dating twenty year old Irving Wheeler, a civilian conservation corps worker from Banning, California. At the time she was attending San Bernardino high school and working part-time at a hot dog stand. She described Irving as <i>"a nice looking boy who had a crewcut and a jalopy."</i> He was born Irvine Alexander Wheeler on November 5, 1913 in Stamford, Connecticut. His father, <a href="https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/124647863/bruce-wheeler">Bruce Wheeler</a>, was a manufacturer and his mother, <a href="https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/85401817/irene-ethel-foster">Irene Hurd Wheeler</a>, was a housewife. After they divorced Irene married Jerome Decker, a dentist. Then Irving and his younger <a href="https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/85546248/paul-victor-wheeler">brother Paul</a> moved to California to live with their father. Carole eloped with him on January 14, 1934 in Yuma, Arizona. Because she was only fifteen she lied about her age on the marriage license. When <a href="http://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2011/10/remembering-clara-ridste.html">her mother Clara</a> found out she had the marriage annulled and Irving was arrested for "contributing to the delinquency of a minor". The charges were dropped after he proved they were legally married. On August 25, 1934 the couple got married again. This time they had the consent of Carole's father Alfred Ridste.</div><div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">She and Irving moved into a one room apartment with no refrigerator. After just three weeks of marriage she walked out on him. Irving eventually went to Hollywood and became an actor using the name <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0730360/">Jack Robbins</a>. In 1938 he sued Carole's boyfriend Busby Berkeley for $250,000 claiming "alienation of affection". The suit was dismissed and she officially divorced him on May 10, 1939. She told reporters <i>"I didn't think anyone knew I'd ever been married. I thought Irving had forgotten our marriage, too. We lived together for three weeks and then had an argument. I've only seen him once since then, and that was when he told me he wanted a divorce."</i> Carole got Irving a job as a stand-in on her 1942 film <a href="http://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2014/01/watch-gentleman-at-heart.html">A Gentleman In Heart</a>. He also worked as Bob Hope's stand-in and was briefly engaged to singer <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ella_Mae_Morse">Ella Mae Morse</a>.

At the time he studying to be a chef and using the name Irving Decker. He died <a href="https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/220126677/irving-alexander-wheeler">on January 26, 2007</a> at the age of ninety-four.<br />

When Carole was sixteen years old she dropped out of high school so she could pursue her dream of becoming a star. She said <i>"Although I avoided dramatics - and everything else - in school. I wanted to be a success on the stage, the screen, or the radio. So I saved my money and when I had bus fare and $16.82 over, I told my <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2011/10/remembering-clara-ridste.html">mother Clara</a> I was going to leave home. She was heartbroken, but she believed in me."</i> Carole left San Bernardino and took a bus to San Francisco in the Spring of 1935. She went from one nightclub to another looking for a job. After a few weeks she was hired to dance at the popular Royal Hawaiian nightclub located at <a href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/960+Bush+St,+San+Francisco,+CA+94109/@37.7899724,-122.4151674,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x8085808d89ff49b9:0xd96550fcc942359b!8m2!3d37.7899682!4d-122.4125925!16s%2Fg%2F11c5fxt91f?entry=ttu">960 Bush Street</a>. In an interview she said <i>"The manager of the Royal Hawaiian club in San Francisco was interviewing girls to sing and dance in the floor show and when he asked me if I could sing and dance I blithely said 'Of course, I'm great!' when actually I was a greenhorn at both. Luckily the chorus was learning a new hula routine and in the resultant confusion no one noticed I didn't know my right foot from my left.".</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br /></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZZAs1j1_cRlOjTIqwnuM-IJjkq1Aih_442N-L-y53NlvlK3RxZ6UNgvM8YrROKMeP5zmhXCtDiYZaWBOGJukyy_hYMbuWWxIgp3d8tWbE9_s4y37d-YF_Q2JoZwtHshNNWgnQy1zfSJ79m1_thD4NOB6i-fkzdNU9Fwsf41VfRgEG8X7n4gKqtyztbPY/s750/carolehorse.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis 1935" border="0" data-original-height="750" data-original-width="500" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZZAs1j1_cRlOjTIqwnuM-IJjkq1Aih_442N-L-y53NlvlK3RxZ6UNgvM8YrROKMeP5zmhXCtDiYZaWBOGJukyy_hYMbuWWxIgp3d8tWbE9_s4y37d-YF_Q2JoZwtHshNNWgnQy1zfSJ79m1_thD4NOB6i-fkzdNU9Fwsf41VfRgEG8X7n4gKqtyztbPY/w213-h320/carolehorse.png" title="Carole Landis 1935" width="213" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: x-small;">Sixteen year old Carole</span></b></div><div style="text-align: center;">

Carole worked there until she found a full-time singing job. Almost all of her biographies claim that she sang with Carl Ravazza's band but this is not true! Although she auditioned to sing with Ravazza he didn't hire her. Instead he helped her get a job singing at the Rio Del Mar Country Club Inn. She would later tell people that Carl Ravazza discovered her as a way to thank him. While living in San Francisco she spent her evenings performing on stage and went to the beach every afternoon. She also took singing lessons three times a week. Carole said <i>"I sang twice a night and slept the rest of the time when I wasn't lying on the beach. If I make a million bucks a week in pictures I still wouldn't have a better life than that."</i> It was during this time that she began using "Carole Landis" as her professional name. She said <i>"One day I just sat down and wrote 200 names and I decided that Carole Landis was the best of them."</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><i><br /></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNoN9pgFqtHZODw5yAnJendRalXiKVnmNGnCfEsP0dVYGR1UBBU4Tz2ATtncbqj491j0ufziKrsqkh_Mst9AHiQ4bmyE_IBg-J2s6jbb1Hevkr88Mj63pIF_RD2G43GkPgpE0wvo61enQrLeFb-bqiUPC-L51JvBrs1zDqPQqqZZuTcuWPW2JUWYdm4F4/s600/landis36.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis 1936" border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="600" height="267" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNoN9pgFqtHZODw5yAnJendRalXiKVnmNGnCfEsP0dVYGR1UBBU4Tz2ATtncbqj491j0ufziKrsqkh_Mst9AHiQ4bmyE_IBg-J2s6jbb1Hevkr88Mj63pIF_RD2G43GkPgpE0wvo61enQrLeFb-bqiUPC-L51JvBrs1zDqPQqqZZuTcuWPW2JUWYdm4F4/w320-h267/landis36.png" title="Carole Landis 1936" width="320" /></a></div><b><span style="font-size: x-small;">Seventeen year old Carole</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span><br /></span></span></b></div></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSJEifYIiqgOidMFeEir2CnmrZ05uck6UkKQNDHDjAAIxjFhzjx0tIietoZQ9fBWD6HKGPXqJPAHSO9h5NGPdEV9XiF1MVwwcSKwNdxc5XkCryWnQe0lFywyKTtENR3Hs9wCPTSfTSB12aMnXCBRA-UFx3DDCG8HYEJ2RS8vDDWXEQ7s8nF93ZRWdt_J0/s655/sisterdorothy.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Dorothy Ross 1935" border="0" data-original-height="655" data-original-width="500" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSJEifYIiqgOidMFeEir2CnmrZ05uck6UkKQNDHDjAAIxjFhzjx0tIietoZQ9fBWD6HKGPXqJPAHSO9h5NGPdEV9XiF1MVwwcSKwNdxc5XkCryWnQe0lFywyKTtENR3Hs9wCPTSfTSB12aMnXCBRA-UFx3DDCG8HYEJ2RS8vDDWXEQ7s8nF93ZRWdt_J0/w244-h320/sisterdorothy.jpg" title="Carole Landis Dorothy Ross 1935" width="244" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_UFuHRXNZYF0XRiC0vbotGIlthvuMQkr28bVbIjOghtV2nAUeJZOPJo9GrVzyQQvkZ-SVuuw3Gl17wkgzhkMXmepHe3dv5E-etzhMI7vjYbLjjvz-kSjghMqcWfD_6yGL_7QcJHAngreHAlxFwZ1R5y3GCMbyeJMpOAI4UDZBW8LE8cOd7uQU8ykp3RQ/s580/ridstegirls.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Dorothy Ross Clara Ridste 1937" border="0" data-original-height="580" data-original-width="500" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_UFuHRXNZYF0XRiC0vbotGIlthvuMQkr28bVbIjOghtV2nAUeJZOPJo9GrVzyQQvkZ-SVuuw3Gl17wkgzhkMXmepHe3dv5E-etzhMI7vjYbLjjvz-kSjghMqcWfD_6yGL_7QcJHAngreHAlxFwZ1R5y3GCMbyeJMpOAI4UDZBW8LE8cOd7uQU8ykp3RQ/w276-h320/ridstegirls.png" title="Carole Landis Dorothy Ross Clara Ridste 1937" width="276" /></a></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: x-small;">Carole with her sister Dorothy Carole with her mother Clara and sister </span></b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">There have been rumors that Carole worked as a prostitute in San Francisco. We know these stories are NOT TRUE because she always had a steady job when she lived there. Carole even kept her old wedding ring on so men wouldn't bother her. These malicious rumors haunted her throughout her life. We believe they were started by actresses who were jealous of her success. In the Fall of 1936 she quit her singing job at the Rio Del Mar and moved to Hollywood to become an actress. Ken Dolan, Frances Langford's manager, signed her as a client. She worked as an extra in several films including <a href="https://www.classicactresses.org/2018/10/janet-gaynor-in-star-is-born.html">A Star Is Born</a>, The Emperor's Candlesticks, and Broadway Melody Of 1938. Carole had a group of close friends that included actor Lyle Talbot and make-up artist Evelyn O'Brien. She moved into a modest apartment at <a href="https://www.redfin.com/CA/Los-Angeles/1933-N-Bronson-Ave-90068/home/7131309">1933 North Bronson Avenue</a>.

In the spring of 1937 eighteen year old Carole auditioned for director Busby Berkeley. He was impressed with her dancing and with her beautiful figure. Busby gave her a bit part in the musical <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oO2QXG99sxY">Varsity Show.</a> She was only supposed to be in a few scenes but when a dancer quit Busby put Carole in the big dance finale. Off screen she and Busby started a highly publicized romance. He was twenty-three years older than her and had been married several times. With Busby's help Carole was given a one year contract at Warner Brothers for $50 a week. Since she was still considered a minor she actually had to got to court to get the contract approved. She was given small roles in more than a dozen films including <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uytKIECKmDo">Hollywood Hotel</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NcHviBXwZg">Gold Diggers In Paris</a>, and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1KajBo3JSE">Blondes At Work</a>.<br />

<div><br /></div><div><span style="text-align: left;">Most of the parts were forgettable but she was beginning to make a name for herself in Hollywood. Carole posed for hundreds of publicity photos and became known for her sexy leg art. She said <i>"It was the leg art that did the trick. Naughty leg art, if you happen to look at it in that light. You see when the boys needed someone to pose in a skin-tight white bathing suit, go sleigh riding in shorts, or climb a ladder in a skirt they would yell 'Get Landis!' and Landis was willin'. That made everybody happy except, maybe, the goody-goods and the bluenoses and I suspect they took a second peek now and then.".</i> In April of 1938 she made </span><a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2018/11/radio-shows.html" style="text-align: left;">her radio debut</a><span style="text-align: left;"> in the Warner Brothers Academy show "Special Agent". </span>During her time at the studio she became close friends with <a href="https://www.classicactresses.org/2016/11/diana-lewis-1940s-starlet.html">Diana Lewis</a> and Pat O'Brien.</div></div></div></div></div>

<span style="text-align: left;">Busy encouraged her to change her hair from platinum blonde to brunette. He wanted to marry her but his mother did not approve of their romance.</span> Then in the Spring of 1938 <a href="http://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2018/05/caroles-first-marriage-to-irving-wheeler.html">Irving Wheeler</a>, Carole's estranged husband, sued Busby for alienation of affection. The story made headlines all over the country and she was featured on the cover of the New York Daily News. Although Irving lost the case the bad publicity hurt her reputation. When her contract with Warner Brothers expired they did not renew it. Carole's romance with Busby ended in the Summer of 1938. She said<i> "I think Busby is a very grand person and I have the highest regard for him. I do hope someday he'll meet the right person to bring him happiness as a life companion. I wasn't the right person.".</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br /></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GFN2KT0N6xw/YCHiTdYwBzI/AAAAAAAAops/kzph7isEHfAHRpdXBiXXwNb09WgWvHZ2gCLcBGAsYHQ/s700/carolehat2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><img alt="Carole Landis 1937" border="0" data-original-height="700" data-original-width="600" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GFN2KT0N6xw/YCHiTdYwBzI/AAAAAAAAops/kzph7isEHfAHRpdXBiXXwNb09WgWvHZ2gCLcBGAsYHQ/w274-h320/carolehat2.jpg" title="Carole Landis 1937" width="274" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkgMpby2AKXr6B4on1QmmDOVEPpXNmlnD4hBo0Ur2zwVkHv2Daw5YzrB7gu8GfIjrTvDOum3xCwycaZmCwSwYja8tHpKJ5yzTZ_Hx5trvSoLhLS8LbHOj60fToaS2EZDPU1tUXIy2QKdKW_Mwxq6_TzXBVpEYa18okjnnXTA9nBZx8VGKuHPkjenqf/s635/landis1937.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis 1937" border="0" data-original-height="635" data-original-width="500" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkgMpby2AKXr6B4on1QmmDOVEPpXNmlnD4hBo0Ur2zwVkHv2Daw5YzrB7gu8GfIjrTvDOum3xCwycaZmCwSwYja8tHpKJ5yzTZ_Hx5trvSoLhLS8LbHOj60fToaS2EZDPU1tUXIy2QKdKW_Mwxq6_TzXBVpEYa18okjnnXTA9nBZx8VGKuHPkjenqf/w252-h320/landis1937.jpg" title="Carole Landis 1937" width="252" /></a></div>

<b><i>"I had great dreams of being the toast of Broadway and of every studio in Hollywood clamoring for </i><br />
<i>my services." ~ Carole</i></b><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />When Carole's contract with Warner Brothers ended she signed with agent Louis Shurr. In June of 1938 she made her stage debut in a Los Angeles production of Roberta. The nineteen year old had one of the leading female roles opposite Bob Hope. She was offered a contract at Paramount but turned it down so she could star in the play Once Upon A Night. Carole went out on a few dates with her costar Ken Murray. The show opened in Delaware in September and closed after only two performances. She said <i>"We opened in Wilmington and closed in two nights without so much of a breath of Broadway. I was pretty inconsolable."</i> After returning to Los Angeles she started taking acting classes. Carole and her <a href="http://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2011/10/remembering-clara-ridste.html">mother Clara</a> moved into a small home on <a href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/1130+south+clark+drive+los+angeles+ca/@34.0561213,-118.3847573,3a,75y,82.47h,90t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sSNooBZzkISp5gDRCR33YQg!2e0!4m2!3m1!1s0x80c2b95c569c1749:0x293fcebffebb0b86?sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiS3b7smq7gAhUL84MKHUGZBp0QxB0wAHoECAEQAg">1130 South Clark Drive</a> in Los Angeles.

<a name='more'></a><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">In the Fall of 1939 director Hal Roach gave twenty year old Carole the lead role in his science fiction film <a href="http://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2012/11/one-million-bc.html">One Million B.C.</a> Although the movie got mixed reviews the publicity Carole received made her a star. Hal Roach was so impressed with her performance that he signed her to a seven year contract. After finishing One Million B.C. she was cast opposite John Hubbard in the comedy <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2012/10/turnabout.html">Turnabout</a>. She and John were teamed up again in <a href="http://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2014/09/road-show.html">Road Show</a>. Then she starred in <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2014/09/topper-returns.html">Topper Returns</a>, a sequel to the hit movie Topper. During the Spring of 1940 she was loaned to Paramount to make the drama <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2013/05/watch-mystery-sea-raider.html">Mystery Sea Raider</a>. She was now earning $750 a week! While working at the Roach studio she lost nearly twenty pounds and dyed her hair platinum blonde. She also had <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2018/05/caroles-cosmetic-surgery.html">cosmetic surgery</a> on her nose. When she wasn't on a movie set Carole spent her time dancing at nightclubs and taking night classes.</div><div style="text-align: center;">

<br />She had brief relationships with assistant director Hal Roach Jr. and agent Pat DiCicco. After a whirlwind romance she married yacht broker <a href="http://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2018/08/caroles-marriage-to-willis-hunt.html">Willis Hunt</a> on July 4, 1940. They divorced just four months later. Frank Seltzer, Hal Roach's head of publicity, decided that Carole needed a catchy nickname to promote herself. He chose "The Ping Girl: Because She Makes You Purr". The idea came from an automobile ad slogan that said "change ping to purr". Carole hated this nickname probably because the word "ping" was also slang for a male erection. When Hal Roach threw a party at Ciro's to introduce her as "The Ping Girl" she refused to attend. She said <i>"I was never consulted about the scheme nor do I approve the appellation they would like to inflict upon me. For these reasons I will not be present at my own reception to ping, purr, or even coo."</i></div>

Carole was so upset that she sent letters to all the newspaper editors to complain. She wrote:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<i> "This is the lament of a fugitive from a leg-art career. I want a fair chance to prove myself something more than a curvaceous cutie. I want to get out of bathing suits and into something more substantial. Unfortunately the publicity department of my studio does not agree. They have conceive the brilliant idea of selling me to the public as "The Ping Girl" - because she makes you purr. This flash of genius is to be illustrated with a series of pictures out of their files suggestive of anything but acting talent. I haven't any legal redress. There isn't I am advised any way to stop the publicity department. Therefore I am asking you to help me nip the scheme in the right place - in the pages of your newspaper."</i><br />
<br />She also asked that the newspapers not publish any more of her bathing suit pin-ups. Her protest got her a lot of attention and some critics thought it was all just a publicity stunt.

She had the leading role of Loana, a beautiful cave girl who falls in love with a caveman
from another tribe. This was the first film she made for producer <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2016/04/how-carole-became-ping-girl.html">Hal Roach</a>. He said he hired her because she looked best running in the skimpy costume. The cast includes Victor Mature (as Loana's love interest), Lon Chaney Jr, Conrad Nagel, John Hubbard, and <a href="https://www.classicactresses.org/2020/05/jeanporter.html">Jean Porter</a>. She and Jean Porter shared a dressing room on the set and became close friends. Since Carole plays a cave girl she does not speak one line of dialogue in the entire movie! One Million B.C. was filmed in California and Nevada from November 1939 until early 1940.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EZl0Y34eMSs/T4puufN12ZI/AAAAAAAABa4/Mki_K0UPzKE/s1600/movie1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis One Million B.C." border="0" height="320" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EZl0Y34eMSs/T4puufN12ZI/AAAAAAAABa4/Mki_K0UPzKE/w247-h320/movie1.jpg" title="Carole Landis One Million B.C." width="247" /></a><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FvOIn02oS3o/W2oEf7YD1XI/AAAAAAAAdqY/qawqqzi_KpE5YOVHiSgKFpgjrKvnnS3hACLcBGAs/s1600/landisone.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis One Million B.C." border="0" data-original-height="665" data-original-width="500" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FvOIn02oS3o/W2oEf7YD1XI/AAAAAAAAdqY/qawqqzi_KpE5YOVHiSgKFpgjrKvnnS3hACLcBGAs/w240-h320/landisone.jpg" title="Carole Landis One Million B.C." width="240" /></a><br />

<br /></div>Hal Roach and his son Hal Roach Jr. directed the movie after D.W. Griffith quit. During filming Carole had a brief romance with Hal Roach Jr. One Million B.C. was
released on April 5, 1940. <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2012/10/remembering-dorothy-ridste.html">Carole's <span></span>sister</a> said she had never seen her as happy as she was at the premiere. The movie got mixed reviews and became a modest hit. All of the publicity Carole got from the film made her a star. It got two Academy Award nominations (special effects and
musical score). One Million B.C. was remade in 1966 with Raquel Welch in the leading role.</div><div style="text-align: center;">

In 1940 Carole starred in the sex-change comedy
Turnabout. She had the leading role of Sally Willows, a frustrated housewife who magically
switches bodies with her husband. This was the second film she made while under contract with <a href="http://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2016/04/how-carole-became-ping-girl.html">Hal Roach</a>. He also directed the film. The large cast includes John Hubbard (who plays Sally's husband), Adolphe Menjou, Mary Astor, <a href="https://www.classicactresses.org/2020/11/marjoriemain.html">Marjorie Main</a>, Donald Meek, Joyce Compton, <a href="https://www.classicactresses.org/2017/04/yolande-donlan-1940s-starlet.html">Yolande Donlan</a>, and <a href="https://classichollywoodactresses.blogspot.com/2016/11/margaret-roach-1930s-starlet.html">Margaret Roach</a> (Hal Roach's daughter). Since Carole and John Hubbard's voices were dubbed in many scenes they had to learn all of each others lines. Turnabout was based on the book by Thorne Smith. It was filmed at Hal Roach's studio in Culver City from February 19 until March 17 of 1940.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">Before production began Carole lost twenty pounds and had <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2018/05/caroles-cosmetic-surgery.html">cosmetic surgery</a> on her nose. The costumes were designed by Royer. She loved the pink dress from the film so much that she later wore it to the <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2011/12/trivia.html">1941 Academy Awards</a>. Turnabout was
released on May 17, 1940. The plot was considered so controversial that the Legion of Decency gave the movie an objectionable rating. Carole brought her boyfriend <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2018/08/caroles-marriage-to-willis-hunt.html">Willis Hunt</a> and her mother <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2011/10/remembering-clara-ridste.html">Clara</a> to the premiere at Grauman's Chinese Theater. The movie became a modest hit and she got rave reviews for her comedic performance. She later said it was one of her favorite films. Turnabout was made
into a short-lived television series starring Sharon Gless and Rick Springfield in 1979.</div>

In early 1940 Carole had cosmetic surgery to take out a bump and make her nose smaller. She said she did it so she would look better and thought it would help her career. There are rumors that she actually had to have her nose "fixed" after her boyfriend Pat DiCicco hit her. Just a month after getting the surgery Carole started filming the movie <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2012/10/turnabout.html">Turnabout</a>. The nose job was a success and she looked even more beautiful in photos. She told reporter Sheilah Graham that she had the surgery in the Fall of 1939 but photos seem to prove that it wasn't done until 1940.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-AWzI0-4nnj8/W7rfxVu5q9I/AAAAAAAAeCo/evAztXaqDSoHimc-qesz7jqOivC-iNXMgCLcBGAs/s1600/nose.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Nose Job" border="0" data-original-height="90" data-original-width="360" height="80" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-AWzI0-4nnj8/W7rfxVu5q9I/AAAAAAAAeCo/evAztXaqDSoHimc-qesz7jqOivC-iNXMgCLcBGAs/s320/nose.jpg" title="Carole Landis Nose Job" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1a2X2pkOe0M/YCSSVdId--I/AAAAAAAAoqw/UsURVZtatd4Ge9V5RqX34hfVEdsrCEB_wCLcBGAsYHQ/s1000/nosejob.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Plastic Surgery" border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="1000" height="200" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1a2X2pkOe0M/YCSSVdId--I/AAAAAAAAoqw/UsURVZtatd4Ge9V5RqX34hfVEdsrCEB_wCLcBGAsYHQ/w400-h200/nosejob.jpg" title="Carole Landis Plastic Surgery" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: x-small;">Carole in 1939 (left) and in 1944 (right)</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Rk13FAv75eE/WugphLDFgXI/AAAAAAAAc-M/S0BDqilqeGo3wsXu4DYJ4GiJaBFByvhPwCLcBGAs/s1600/The_Atlanta_Constitution_Sun__Jan_19__1941_.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Nose Job Article" border="0" data-original-height="1345" data-original-width="500" height="400" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Rk13FAv75eE/WugphLDFgXI/AAAAAAAAc-M/S0BDqilqeGo3wsXu4DYJ4GiJaBFByvhPwCLcBGAs/w148-h400/The_Atlanta_Constitution_Sun__Jan_19__1941_.jpg" title="Carole Landis Nose Job Article" width="148" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiE2oJil2ttJ6IaELU6arvlABN_RANAskV61cMHCeO4nvpFY6dWL36iO-1i7vXnfqMBqKbMtE3amEXLd9xKEwWxdizSSYDzlrySCqW5fAawvm0Qi2iJxTBcykdkhmSX3Sw2O0a-bUZ54X1iL6hQ8dYQsKg9Bvz81--OeyTk7x1JKwm45kQHWrGb3zPa=s690" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Nose Job" border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="690" height="232" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiE2oJil2ttJ6IaELU6arvlABN_RANAskV61cMHCeO4nvpFY6dWL36iO-1i7vXnfqMBqKbMtE3amEXLd9xKEwWxdizSSYDzlrySCqW5fAawvm0Qi2iJxTBcykdkhmSX3Sw2O0a-bUZ54X1iL6hQ8dYQsKg9Bvz81--OeyTk7x1JKwm45kQHWrGb3zPa=w320-h232" title="Carole Landis Nose Job" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div>

In 1940 Carole starred in the wartime drama Mystery Sea Raider. She had the leading role of June McCarthy, a beautiful young woman who is taken hostage aboard an enemy ship. <a href="http://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2016/04/how-carole-became-ping-girl.html">Hal Roach</a> loaned her to Paramount to make the movie. Paramount president Adolph Zukor said she was <i>"lovely to look at and able to play dramatic roles."</i> The cast includes Henry Wilcoxon (as June's love interest), Onslow Stevens, and Kathleen Howard. It was directed by Edward Dmytryk who was married to Carole's friend <a href="https://www.classicactresses.org/2020/05/jeanporter.html">Jean Porter</a>. Academy Award winner Edith Head designed the costumes.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-njsju0gBUpQ/Wpe11IC8cbI/AAAAAAAAcpQ/EtLpjojbei0zw97mJyXe7xbgTvI74jBbQCLcBGAs/s1600/sea.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Henry Wilcoxon Mystery Sea Raider" border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="540" height="185" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-njsju0gBUpQ/Wpe11IC8cbI/AAAAAAAAcpQ/EtLpjojbei0zw97mJyXe7xbgTvI74jBbQCLcBGAs/w200-h185/sea.jpg" title="Carole Landis Henry Wilcoxon Mystery Sea Raider" width="200" /></a><a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Wp8alPoW06I/VuMJNYPTbCI/AAAAAAAAWtw/g7Anb25zrzMr0AsMA4GtoWTCmLbmniBaw/s1600/mystrai.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Henry Wilcoxon Mystery Sea Raider" border="0" height="298" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Wp8alPoW06I/VuMJNYPTbCI/AAAAAAAAWtw/g7Anb25zrzMr0AsMA4GtoWTCmLbmniBaw/w320-h298/mystrai.jpg" title="Carole Landis Henry Wilcoxon Mystery Sea Raider" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: x-small;">Carole with Henry Wilcoxon</span></b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEintBaom1WrfJIANR8tVP1iyCpbfpIA9c4HIIjS6nXmgTvXksyG0l0_TTmHljXNlRFZbg7dLwGf18JHhBRtLYMTvHHy_S7Uiz3HqHaN7uvgyP2DnGjQqcWUqrE2MYY4ElHRDBVAbbWfHfo1hx6LBrKyxLlctJewmiYlZ27YD2D57P5PR1PnS9Jl4nvu2Ts/s700/colorcl.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Mystery Sea Raider" border="0" data-original-height="700" data-original-width="515" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEintBaom1WrfJIANR8tVP1iyCpbfpIA9c4HIIjS6nXmgTvXksyG0l0_TTmHljXNlRFZbg7dLwGf18JHhBRtLYMTvHHy_S7Uiz3HqHaN7uvgyP2DnGjQqcWUqrE2MYY4ElHRDBVAbbWfHfo1hx6LBrKyxLlctJewmiYlZ27YD2D57P5PR1PnS9Jl4nvu2Ts/w235-h320/colorcl.jpg" title="Carole Landis Mystery Sea Raider" width="235" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Filming took place at Paramount studios in Hollywood during May and June of 1940. Carole often brought homemade cookies to the set. To promote the movie Paramount had her pose for a series of sexy photos wearing dresses she never even wore in the film. Mystery Sea Raider was released on August 9, 1940. The movie was a modest hit and she got rave reviews for her dramatic performance. Her costar Henry Wilcoxin later said <i>"A lot unkind things have been said about Carole over the years. I liked her very much. She was a very pretty blonde. She was a tireless worker on the set."</i><br /><br />

<br />
In the Spring of 1940 Carole started dating yacht salesman Willis Hunt Jr. He was born in Los Angeles on March 23, 1913. Willis was divorced from heiress Dolly Brewer and had a three year old daughter. He also had a reputation as a playboy who loved to party. Just two weeks after their first date he<span style="font-size: small;"> </span>proposed to Carole. She accepted and told friends <i>"We like to do the same things. I think it will work"</i>. Carole's mother <a href="http://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2011/10/remembering-clara-ridste.html">Clara Ridste</a> tried to talk her out of marrying him but she didn't listen. On July 4, 1940 the couple eloped in Las Vegas. They moved into a modest home at <a href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/1816+Prosser+Ave,+Los+Angeles,+CA+90025/@34.053125,-118.4289463,15z/data=!4m13!1m7!3m6!1s0x80c2bb855b17d5f1:0x609deff2731cfff2!2s1816+Prosser+Ave,+Los+Angeles,+CA+90025!3b1!8m2!3d34.0532466!4d-118.428655!3m4!1s0x80c2bb855b17d5f1:0x609deff2731cfff2!8m2!3d34.0532466!4d-118.428655">1816 Prosser Avenue</a> in Los Angeles. Unfortunately Willis became abusive and Carole walked out on him after only two months of marriage.<br />

They announced their separation in September and were divorced in November 1940. Carole said their break-up made her suffer a nervous breakdown. She told reporters <i>"There I was being so happy, so ecstatic, so delirious, so willing to forsake all others. To stop being Miss Big and try being the Little Woman. He didn't want a Little Woman."</i> Surprisingly Carole and Willis remained friends and continued to go out together. On December 14, 1969 Willis was <a href="https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/157995447/willis-eskridge-hunt">stabbed to death</a> by his fifth wife, former actress <a href="https://classichollywoodactresses.blogspot.com/2019/04/deannie-best-1940s-starlet.html">Deannie Best</a>. He was fifty-six years old. Deannie was charged with murder but she claimed it was self defense. After a trial in 1970 she was found innocent of all charges.</div>

It was made with a budget of $500,000. A few days before filming began Carole had eloped with <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2018/08/caroles-marriage-to-willis-hunt.html">Willis Hunt</a>. While shooting one scene she suffered a minor concussion when a prop vase hit her on her head! She sings "I Should Have Known You Years Ago" but unfortunately her voice was dubbed by Martha Mears. Her costumes were designed by Kay Nelson. Road Show was released on February 18, 1941. The movie was a modest hit and Carole's performance got good reviews.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-P1WeZ844pYo/YDi4t70cfdI/AAAAAAAAozs/cRkA3fZiJn4QZEjjhCHBoXQJ3r19tBqjACLcBGAsYHQ/s700/road.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis John Hubbard" border="0" data-original-height="610" data-original-width="700" height="279" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-P1WeZ844pYo/YDi4t70cfdI/AAAAAAAAozs/cRkA3fZiJn4QZEjjhCHBoXQJ3r19tBqjACLcBGAsYHQ/w320-h279/road.jpg" title="Carole Landis John Hubbard" width="320" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2M-8L2z1-Jc/VBgntEotStI/AAAAAAAAS38/VoUqqxwj6dk/s1600/road3.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis John Hubbard" border="0" height="168" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2M-8L2z1-Jc/VBgntEotStI/AAAAAAAAS38/VoUqqxwj6dk/w200-h168/road3.jpg" title="Carole Landis John Hubbard" width="200" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">

Zanuck</a>, President of 20th Century Fox, signed Carole to a seven year contract at the studio. The press predicted that he was going to make her a big star like he had done for <a href="https://www.classicactresses.org/2016/12/betty-grable.html">Betty Grable</a> and Alice Faye. Zanuck said <i>"I figured any girl who is so popular with men, whom so many men want to date, must have something we can use and need in our pictures."</i> Director Rouben Mamoulian offered Carole a role in his big budget drama Blood and Sand. When she turned it down rumors began that she didn't want to dye her hair red. It's more likely that she turned it down because Zanuck had promised her the lead in the Western Belle Starr. Carole was devastated when he gave that role to <a href="https://www.classicactresses.org/2016/12/gene-tierney.html">Gene Tierney</a> instead. Her first assignment at Fox was a supporting role the technicolor musical <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2012/10/moon-over-miami.html">Moon Over Miami</a>. She costarred with <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2012/11/carole-and-cesar.html">Cesar Romero</a> in the <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2014/06/dance-hall.html">Dance Hall</a> and with Victor Mature in <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2012/11/i-wake-up-screaming.html">I Wake Up Screaming</a>. Then got top billing in the musical <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2013/05/searching-for-cadet-girl.html">Cadet Girl</a> which also showed off her talent as a singer.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">

<div>
<b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></b></div><div>In 1942 she starred in five films including <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2014/01/watch-gentleman-at-heart.html">A Gentlemen At Heart</a>, <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2015/04/it-happened-in-flatbush.html">It Happened In Flatbush</a>, and <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2014/04/manila-calling.html">Manila Calling</a>. She said <i>"The busier they keep me the better I like it. I've been fighting to get up on this ladder for five years ever since I ran away from high school."</i> Unfortunately Darryl Zanuck had a reputation as a sexual predator who slept with all the actresses at Fox. Carole did have a sexual relationship with him and gossip about their affair hurt her reputation in Hollywood. When she stopped giving in to Zanuck's sexual demands he was furious. She had signed on to star in Highway To Hell with <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2012/11/carole-and-cesar.html">Cesar Romero</a> but the movie was abruptly cancelled. Then she was supposed to play the lead in the 1942 Technicolor musical <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2023/08/mygalsal.html">My Gal Sal</a>. Right before filming began Zanuck hired <a href="http://classichollywoodactresses.blogspot.com/2017/01/rita-hayworth.html">Rita Hayworth</a> to play the lead and recast Carole in a supporting role. She was so upset that she begged her fans to write to Fox and ask them to cast her in better movies. Instead she was given her minor roles in <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2023/10/orchestrawives.html">Orchestra Wives</a> and <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2014/04/wintertime.html">Wintertime</a>.</div></div><div style="text-align: center;">

She made Orchestra Wives at United Artists and <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2012/10/having-wonderful-crime.html">Having Wonderful Crime</a> at RKO. Despite Zanuck's efforts to sabotage her career Carole was very popular at the studio. Directors like Ray McCarey loved working with her and she always got along with the crew. She was happy when Fox agreed to make her book <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2018/11/four-jills-in-jeep-book-movie.html">Four Jills In Jeep</a> into a movie. However she had no creative control over the script and it ended up being a disappointment. By 1945 she was earning $1350 a week but she was unhappy with the films she was being offered. She turned down leading roles in The Spider and Doll Face because she felt they were inferior projects. Carole begged Zanuck to let her make a screen test for the comedy Cluny Brown but was told she was "too glamorous" to play the part. Instead she was cast in B-movie <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2022/05/behindgreenlights.html">Behind Green Lights</a>.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiY3BKqtehaBDRY68v4ddEQw1KyWAEpyqabcLJzrP5Z4b2epuQDF0E3r280NtjkaKXArDrDSk9-NHGHhjGWS11nXliEZHlXfLrsvA5RuUfqcvDUe9kSS8LG5Zu24JutHka9AXPqjGgoqNPWM_KgZq29IS2NB3JmbM2faa0KuIg8Uo_8rQx5awxA_GKYFmQ/s700/clfox2.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis 1941" border="0" data-original-height="700" data-original-width="560" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiY3BKqtehaBDRY68v4ddEQw1KyWAEpyqabcLJzrP5Z4b2epuQDF0E3r280NtjkaKXArDrDSk9-NHGHhjGWS11nXliEZHlXfLrsvA5RuUfqcvDUe9kSS8LG5Zu24JutHka9AXPqjGgoqNPWM_KgZq29IS2NB3JmbM2faa0KuIg8Uo_8rQx5awxA_GKYFmQ/w256-h320/clfox2.png" title="Carole Landis 1941" width="256" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDcF_zpYvtFxTlRrkVTK2XnudQVymeFIF4gFWfKVWT4DkMLsCWDyiCxc4PqRTe8Oj7ar8Bi-JokQ89-rcWbpQW7nNyX1JhQ-f_hzqls4PeW2wLZfL6jckJX1Aq2-vQUO6Wyh1PitqxLXTdpnjI2xvmaJ_UIf8r9N_2LijpRkhlTWBq4rhOZadBYUTbb1E/s700/clfox.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis 1941" border="0" data-original-height="700" data-original-width="560" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDcF_zpYvtFxTlRrkVTK2XnudQVymeFIF4gFWfKVWT4DkMLsCWDyiCxc4PqRTe8Oj7ar8Bi-JokQ89-rcWbpQW7nNyX1JhQ-f_hzqls4PeW2wLZfL6jckJX1Aq2-vQUO6Wyh1PitqxLXTdpnjI2xvmaJ_UIf8r9N_2LijpRkhlTWBq4rhOZadBYUTbb1E/w256-h320/clfox.png" title="Carole Landis 1941" width="256" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCgpuGUVjncfh2Wr0VAATlvQRGRgGhkA537CJWOf2ZUbSV7w1hj5qGgsDbEJHeQETIdWwjcEgJ-maysboDnUCQs6M_Tf5gZ7rLJR7DyVHMwyVgU5gVV6pyzW4hdxNjzr4-zDEZfPTGfKqvs2lIFI1Da0FUXrY618Zi3vW4PEUP_vgxb6k4A3JyS9soZt8/s690/dressingroom.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Outside Her Dressing Room" border="0" data-original-height="690" data-original-width="500" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCgpuGUVjncfh2Wr0VAATlvQRGRgGhkA537CJWOf2ZUbSV7w1hj5qGgsDbEJHeQETIdWwjcEgJ-maysboDnUCQs6M_Tf5gZ7rLJR7DyVHMwyVgU5gVV6pyzW4hdxNjzr4-zDEZfPTGfKqvs2lIFI1Da0FUXrY618Zi3vW4PEUP_vgxb6k4A3JyS9soZt8/w232-h320/dressingroom.png" title="Carole Landis Outside Her Dressing Room" width="232" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: x-small;">Outside her studio dressing room</span></b></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">She hated the script and would later say it was her least favorite role. When she was assigned a bit part in Somewhere In The Night she refused to do it. Carole said <i>"it would be detrimental to my career."</i> Zanuck immediately put her on suspension without pay. After returning to the studio she made the low budget comedy <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2014/06/it-shouldnt-happen-to-dog.html">It Shouldn't Happen To A Dog</a>. It would be her last movie at 20th Century Fox. On October 24, 1946 she found out that her contract would not be renewed. Carole told a friend <i>"I feel very happy about this, needless to say, for my last pictures on the lot were pretty dreary."</i> She had been at Fox for six years and despite some success she never became an A-list star. After Carole's death Darryl Zanuck spread lies that she wasn't a good actress and told people she "slept with everyone" at the studio. Unfortunately these lies hurt Carole's legacy and many film historians dismissed her as an untalented B-actress.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">In 1941 Carole co-starred in the musical romance Moon Over Miami. She had the supporting role of Barbara Latimer, a carhop who helps her
sister find a wealthy husband in Miami. This was the first film she made
after signing with <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2018/11/20th-century-fox-darryl-zanuck.html">20th Century Fox</a> in 1940. The cast includes Betty Grable (as Barbara's sister), Robert Cummings, Don Ameche, Jack Haley, <a href="http://classichollywoodactresses.blogspot.com/2016/11/charlotte-greenwood-character-actress.html">Charlotte Greenwood</a>, and Cobina Wright Jr. Unfortunately Betty Grable and Carole did not get along and their feud was written about in gossip
columns. Despite getting fourth billing Carole demanded that her dressing room be as large as Betty's! Moon Over Miami was directed by Walter Lang.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div></div>

It was filmed at 20th Century Fox studios in Los Angeles from March 3 until April 25, 1941. Several of the outdoor scenes were shot on location in Miami, Florida. The movie was filmed in Technicolor. Carole got to sing several duets including "Oh Me, Oh Mi-Ami" and "What Can I Do For You". Moon Over Miami was released on July 4, 1941. It became one of the most successful musicals of 1941 and Carole got rave reviews for her

This was the first of four films she made with <a href="http://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2012/11/carole-and-cesar.html">Cesar Romero</a> who would become one of her closest friends. Dance Hall was based on the 1932 novel The Giant Swing by W. R. Burnett. It was directed by Irving Pichel.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">

The costumes were designed by Herschel. Carole was given top billing and Fox spent a lot of money promoting the film. She sings several songs including "There's Something In The Air" and "There's A Lull In My Life". Dance Hall was released on July 18, 1941. The movie got mixed reviews and was not a box-office hit. One reviewer said it gave Carole "<i>the opportunity to show her vocal talents as well as her not inconsiderable charm."</i> In 2013 one of the dresses from the film was sold at <a href="https://www.julienslive.com/lot-details/index/catalog/90/lot/38425">Julien's Auctions</a>.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgL7t52ssr02bLFw6bITwbVM9heIwTRHfudJtRRDVz0Xq46wMknAQfXCsmkYMbq19j8F6t8CDlwcy_KPrBDwu0S-4er0IVg9vz1NSadrpQBO8pLzVhT85o6dYcZPgc-cSNNZfTQyNF2KNUlvmQc0FBuOPbvDCNKonz9Fs2TlM9SecKEOWq2JRqN58NAhSQ/s800/danceauto.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Dance Hall Autograph" border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="635" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgL7t52ssr02bLFw6bITwbVM9heIwTRHfudJtRRDVz0Xq46wMknAQfXCsmkYMbq19j8F6t8CDlwcy_KPrBDwu0S-4er0IVg9vz1NSadrpQBO8pLzVhT85o6dYcZPgc-cSNNZfTQyNF2KNUlvmQc0FBuOPbvDCNKonz9Fs2TlM9SecKEOWq2JRqN58NAhSQ/w254-h320/danceauto.png" title="Carole Landis Dance Hall Autograph" width="254" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: x-small;">An autographed photo</span></b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWCChvECTeplScKGGfL11NQViSDKGKzxyUb80Q1INK5q055ET09KkXTSeqDInrH3od9wlCpOwre_UP5_3c-kC8aTdEAZcCfBnEtflk68G_GjUykkg6113IyjnHRHrdRXVwc-UeYnwYsoI/s1600/ca1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Dance Hall" border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWCChvECTeplScKGGfL11NQViSDKGKzxyUb80Q1INK5q055ET09KkXTSeqDInrH3od9wlCpOwre_UP5_3c-kC8aTdEAZcCfBnEtflk68G_GjUykkg6113IyjnHRHrdRXVwc-UeYnwYsoI/w274-h320/ca1.jpg" title="Carole Landis Dance Hall" width="274" /></a><a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FMxICIXrlS8/Wulgupu9a1I/AAAAAAAAdAE/emGZBssvGKgd3egSKzIe_TlzCrr7SRR9gCLcBGAs/s1600/dance.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Dance Hall" border="0" data-original-height="620" data-original-width="500" height="320" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FMxICIXrlS8/Wulgupu9a1I/AAAAAAAAdAE/emGZBssvGKgd3egSKzIe_TlzCrr7SRR9gCLcBGAs/w258-h320/dance.jpg" title="Carole Landis Dance Hall" width="258" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: x-small;">Wearing gowns designed by Herschel</span></b><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">"My
dear Carole, I have been asked by some of your fans to write something
about you in the way of a tribute so that it may be published in the
club journal. I confess this is a job I have never had to do before and I
don't know just how to start, so don't be too angry if I don't do you
justice. You left the stage of life way too soon my dear and your
friends and fans miss you very much. Personally I am very happy and
proud to have been one of your friends and to have had the honor of
working with you in four pictures. There was never a dull day on the set
with you. Your lovely face, the warmth of your personality, your
vitality and delightful sense of humor were something I always looked
forward to and which made the average working day truly a pleasure. I
remember the fun we had when we made "Dance Hall" together and what a
wonderful sport you were on the nights that we had to work until five
o'clock in the morning. You never complained about a thing, but took it
in your stride as part of your job and loved every minute of it. I'm
afraid that couldn't be said about all our fair ladies of the screen.
You were a good actress Carole and you owe it only to yourself. You
worked hard, studied and learned a great deal in a very short time. What
is more important, you were a good daughter, sister and aunt. You loved
your family and never shirked your duty toward them. You helped them in
every way possible and brought them much happiness. Of that you can be
extremely proud. I think that I can say in all honesty that you did more
than your share in life. Your record during the war will always stand
as a monument to your memory. The boys that you entertained overseas
will never forget and neither will their families. You brought them
cheer and a touch of home when they really needed it most. That was a
tough job, as I know only too well, but as usual you sailed through it
with flying colors - a trooper if there ever was one. You were a fine
girl Carole, and you made every moment of your life count. I only wish
that life had treated you as kindly as you treated it. As I said before,
I'm proud to have been your friend. Sleep well my dear."</span></center><center><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></center><center><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4UNFaTJ-v9Q/UhztmTCOwcI/AAAAAAAAMgQ/G4EJhQ2ydQI/s1600/cesarring.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><img alt="Carole Landis Cesar Romero 1941" border="0" height="240" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4UNFaTJ-v9Q/UhztmTCOwcI/AAAAAAAAMgQ/G4EJhQ2ydQI/w320-h240/cesarring.jpg" title="Carole Landis Cesar Romero 1941" width="320" /></a></div></center><center><br /></center><center><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcspxt5ullz9Rk2wDgjbgu1t1oxP0JsaPoWw4O9m3JZwMcE-o041EXmWaIkEp7BRsbK5SBiT-UMwA7I545y6MpSVzL4gzWeoNhHtwG-xJf_NqVX-xXhj_aODwexRIcfgI6pJQGoAHDBSCJtDmexbYX1ZqU6gU2QfqT4ssyX8lIwE_sQ0b7SbMEyHTHGL0/s645/withcesar.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Cesar Romero 1941" border="0" data-original-height="645" data-original-width="615" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcspxt5ullz9Rk2wDgjbgu1t1oxP0JsaPoWw4O9m3JZwMcE-o041EXmWaIkEp7BRsbK5SBiT-UMwA7I545y6MpSVzL4gzWeoNhHtwG-xJf_NqVX-xXhj_aODwexRIcfgI6pJQGoAHDBSCJtDmexbYX1ZqU6gU2QfqT4ssyX8lIwE_sQ0b7SbMEyHTHGL0/w305-h320/withcesar.png" title="Carole Landis Cesar Romero 1941" width="305" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyuwZLDklFbMgp1vJ0Qwv1hAGEByd9pbO81sMjkbmLS6jJVyBS1jfmXxaMVqpO0Vahz2pQAFeHs4TE95KgcNnXGYNDPTDu0io2sc-xrLW1XQd50M6-A7x0D8WQcoZAAwQldlcONfWVdSk4CfYHxitL3l_FilNPgLZ6OrZx1G2czipfFtSj0I5v3EVqctM/s700/kissromero.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><img alt="Carole Landis Cesar Romero 1941" border="0" data-original-height="700" data-original-width="500" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyuwZLDklFbMgp1vJ0Qwv1hAGEByd9pbO81sMjkbmLS6jJVyBS1jfmXxaMVqpO0Vahz2pQAFeHs4TE95KgcNnXGYNDPTDu0io2sc-xrLW1XQd50M6-A7x0D8WQcoZAAwQldlcONfWVdSk4CfYHxitL3l_FilNPgLZ6OrZx1G2czipfFtSj0I5v3EVqctM/w229-h320/kissromero.png" title="Carole Landis Cesar Romero 1941" width="229" /></a></div></center>

The movie was released on November 28, 1941. It got mixed reviews from critics and became a modest hit. One reviewer said it was <i>"pretty good entertainment"</i> but that <i>"Carole seems deserving of better material."</i> Unfortunately Cadet Girl is not available on DVD and it has not been shown on television since the 1970s. There is a print in UCLA's archives but it can only be seen by request. The movie was also screened at Cinecon in 2010. In 2022 several of the songs from the film's soundtrack were released on CD.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4Y_M4-pQL1Q/YCMxtbmq8nI/AAAAAAAAoqM/OMhksmglDbgRRwMvXS87jzpGKPUUUi-cQCLcBGAsYHQ/s700/cadetgirl.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Cadet Girl Costume Test" border="0" data-original-height="700" data-original-width="550" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4Y_M4-pQL1Q/YCMxtbmq8nI/AAAAAAAAoqM/OMhksmglDbgRRwMvXS87jzpGKPUUUi-cQCLcBGAsYHQ/w251-h320/cadetgirl.jpg" title="Carole Landis Cadet Girl Costume Test" width="251" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3VeKwcXv1uxl8-JNgM1X2tKnNJ3LS-y1rTH2lyq4893h_18hsqpoZ_1_rIXSWwj-U7t3RCbkxlcyNTZ-X-21F7-q4wM-CRZs_SPYjcBwYwbAHQxe-1-KSq7ml83QfBPtq6wcoML3SSygmJqKayV2nWFYxpCs7A4Kq-ec--VFkPJIFwKXPZAaLd6rQHEE/s700/cadet.png" style="font-family: inherit; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Cadet Girl" border="0" data-original-height="700" data-original-width="570" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3VeKwcXv1uxl8-JNgM1X2tKnNJ3LS-y1rTH2lyq4893h_18hsqpoZ_1_rIXSWwj-U7t3RCbkxlcyNTZ-X-21F7-q4wM-CRZs_SPYjcBwYwbAHQxe-1-KSq7ml83QfBPtq6wcoML3SSygmJqKayV2nWFYxpCs7A4Kq-ec--VFkPJIFwKXPZAaLd6rQHEE/w261-h320/cadet.png" title="Carole Landis Cadet Girl" width="261" /></a><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-small;"><b>Carole wearing dresses designed by Herschel</b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhn7FNlP31d03cDxs9-I74qIsNgKN3V3wYMjeGRFyA2TVUIC11pE34toy7uS3T88WIf4QteWzvgXbBSk44eoFo2ndcNC_gf7oALCUPtrXz68Votcs74zEUO_j5gSQvStiFfdDQyxoCdylbQizorspagWhoZDebZwc7SbHsjHGT2SaNIQnPmr5mHnhb2/s700/janice.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Janis Carter George Montgomery" border="0" data-original-height="580" data-original-width="700" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhn7FNlP31d03cDxs9-I74qIsNgKN3V3wYMjeGRFyA2TVUIC11pE34toy7uS3T88WIf4QteWzvgXbBSk44eoFo2ndcNC_gf7oALCUPtrXz68Votcs74zEUO_j5gSQvStiFfdDQyxoCdylbQizorspagWhoZDebZwc7SbHsjHGT2SaNIQnPmr5mHnhb2/w320-h266/janice.jpg" title="Carole Landis Janis Carter George Montgomery" width="320" /></a></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: x-small;">Carole with Janis Carter and George Montgomery</span></b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><br /></b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><br /></b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>It Happened, It's Over, Let's Forget It</b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><br /></b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="30" mozallowfullscreen="true" src="https://archive.org/embed/26-it-happened-its-over-lets-forget-it-tcf-90-91-cadet-girl-1" webkitallowfullscreen="true" width="500"></iframe></b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><br /></b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>I'll Settle For You</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><br /></b></div><div style="text-align: center;">

1941 Carole co-starred in the film noir I Wake Up Screaming (also known as Hot Spot). She has the supporting role of Vicky Lynn, an ambitious starlet who is killed by a mystery man. At the time she was under contract at <a href="https://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2018/11/20th-century-fox-darryl-zanuck.html">20th Century Fox</a>. The cast includes <a href="https://classichollywoodactresses.blogspot.com/2016/12/betty-grable.html">Betty Grable</a> (as Vicky's sister), Victor Mature, Laird Cregar, Elisha Cook Jr, William Gargan, and Allyn Joslyn. Carole and Victor had worked together before in <a href="http://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2012/11/one-million-bc.html">One Million B.C.</a> She and Betty had also played sisters in <a href="http://carolelandisofficial.blogspot.com/2012/10/moon-over-miami.html">Moon Over Miami</a> but they did not get
along with each other. One day on the set Betty upset Carole by reading a bad review she had gotten out loud! I Wake Up Screaming was based on the novel by Steve Fisher.</div></div></div></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--cDLYnDN3Lk/UOVPt3O_XKI/AAAAAAAAH3g/lzpTqSUZpCI/s1600/carolelandiscar.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Betty Grable Victor Mature" border="0" height="240" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/--cDLYnDN3Lk/UOVPt3O_XKI/AAAAAAAAH3g/lzpTqSUZpCI/w320-h240/carolelandiscar.jpg" title="Carole Landis Betty Grable Victor Mature" width="320" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zK1uAGIu0-Y/Ule4I6XaWyI/AAAAAAAANMo/x0r7OZHlFUc/s1600/carolescream.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Betty Grable Victor Mature" border="0" height="142" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zK1uAGIu0-Y/Ule4I6XaWyI/AAAAAAAANMo/x0r7OZHlFUc/w200-h142/carolescream.jpg" title="Carole Landis Betty Grable Victor Mature" width="200" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: x-small;">Carole, Betty Grable, and Victor Mature</span></b></div></div>

Bruce Humberstone. Gwen Wakeling designed the costumes. It was filmed at 20th Century Fox Studios in Los Angeles from July 21 until August 25, 1941. Carole sings one song titled "The Things I Love". Before filming began her dentist spilled silver nitrate on her lips so they were blue for three weeks. It didn't affect the movie because it was shot in black and white. I
Wake Up Screaming was released on October 31, 1941. The movie got rave reviews and was a box-office success. Although Carole received third billing many critics said her haunting performance stole
the movie from Betty. The film was remade as Vicki in 1953 with Jean Peters playing Carole's role.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>

Then she became an </span></span><span><span style="text-align: left;">Air Raid Warden and an honorary Colonel in the American Legion. </span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">This is what a typical week was like for her: On Mondays she v</span></span><span style="text-align: left;">olunteered at the Hollywood Canteen where she served coffee and played cards with the boys. </span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">On Tuesdays she worked as commander of the First Division of Aerial Nurse Corps of America. </span></span>On Wednesdays she went to rifle practice with Bundles For Bluejackets. <span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">On Fridays she attended advanced first aid training with the Red cross. </span></span><span style="text-align: left;">On Saturdays she invited soldiers to spend time at Santa Monica beach house.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;">

She grew up in a diverse neighborhood and had been friends with African American and Hispanic children. As an adult she always tried to fight what she believed in. During her USO tours she refused to perform in front of segregated audiences and insisted that the black soldiers be allowed to sit with the white soldiers. When she performed at Camp Bowie in San Antonio, Texas she got angry because black soldiers were not allowed to see her show. Carole protested by spending the entire day dancing and playing ping-pong in with the black troops in their service club. She said <i>"Maybe by the time the war is over we will have acquired some of the tolerance we are fighting for." </i> In 1944 she and Jack Benny joined with the "Negro Overseas Unit" to put on a gala show in front of 15,000 soldiers. Carole also performed at several camp shows with dancer Fayard Nicholas. <span style="text-align: left;">After a Southern newspaper criticized her decision to perform with Fayard she wrote a letter to the editor that said </span><i style="text-align: left;">"I have known him for a number of years ... I believe that in this war for the preservation of democracy - a war in which so many of our gallant boys are sacrificing ... it behooves us to give them the utmost support." </i></center><center><i style="text-align: left;"><br /></i></center><center><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SVKKghDRiiE/X_nOFTQtlTI/AAAAAAAAoU4/Ronvyao9g4sMni7QtI66wa57yxihgFx-wCLcBGAsYHQ/s745/fayard.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Fayard Nicholas" border="0" data-original-height="745" data-original-width="485" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SVKKghDRiiE/X_nOFTQtlTI/AAAAAAAAoU4/Ronvyao9g4sMni7QtI66wa57yxihgFx-wCLcBGAsYHQ/w260-h400/fayard.jpg" title="Carole Landis Fayard Nicholas" width="260" /></a><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FpwGesqWgQs/YHFf69LC_II/AAAAAAAApHU/23cjITXWJ5YzOb3VbflhBaJCoavkbw2pQCLcBGAsYHQ/s635/gis.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Carole Landis Civil Rights" border="0" data-original-height="610" data-original-width="635" height="307" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FpwGesqWgQs/YHFf69LC_II/AAAAAAAApHU/23cjITXWJ5YzOb3VbflhBaJCoavkbw2pQCLcBGAsYHQ/w320-h307/gis.jpg" title="Carole Landis Civil Rights" width="320" /></a></center><center><b style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">With Fayard Nicholas in 1943 </span></b></center><center><span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></center><center><span style="text-align: left;">One of Carole's closest companions was her Susie B. Smith, her African American maid. Susie said it was "love at first sight' when they met and described her as a "generous friend". Carole</span><span style="text-align: left;"> was also close friends with </span><a href="https://www.classicactresses.org/2016/12/dorothy-dandridge.html" style="text-align: left;">Dorothy Dandridge</a><span style="text-align: left;"> and they often went to black owned nightclubs together. When she was in New York City she loved going to Cafe Society to see Billie Holiday and pianist Hazel Scott perform. Geri Nicholas, Fayard Nicholas's wife, said </span><i style="text-align: left;">"In those days of segregation you only had each other. Carole Landis and and a few daring whites would mingle with us. We would hang out in the clubs."</i><span style="text-align: left;"> In 1947 Carole presented boxer Joe Louis with a award at the hotel and gave a speech about discrimination. She publicly supported Presidential candidate Henry A. Wallace who was pro-civil rights. After she died one newspaper called her "a true friend" of the black community. Along with civil rights Carole </span>was also a big supporter of gay and lesbian rights. Many of her friends were gay including Cesar Romero and <a href="https://www.classicactresses.org/2016/11/patsy-kelly-lesbian-comedienne.html">Patsy Kelly</a>. She encouraged them to live their lives openly and honestly. Although she never labeled herself as bi-sexual Carole did have an affair with author <a href="http://www.carolelandis.net/2018/07/broadway-jacqueline-susann.html">Jacqueline Susann</a>.</center><center><br /></center><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5oEI1EY01rpUfkg12jall3loPI6P5p3clja5jlgIDOizBqxQJgIRBCseZ1EvfMPqaykJPdkoLwodM5eJKKT7xBsaIUgBFxJ6dZZoHc0_npB8caCbasRl2HHOZBvhNBgT4kAOeHitUGDpcQ6ZDiaGM78BKMcPnBaVZcaOj1_Qr4N1djTmYOhvMcQib/s2635/Greensboro_Daily_News_Sun__Nov_28__1948_.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Interview With Susie B.
