Signature: "Benita Hume" and "Constance Collier" in
pencil. 5x3 index card. BENITA HUME (1906-1967), the sister of
MGM screenwriter Cyril Hume, began her career as a pianist but turned to
acting "for excitement." She made her film debut in 1925, the year before she
starred in one of Alfred Hitchcock's early silent films, Easy Virtue.
After moving to Hollywood in 1932, Hume made a long list of feature
films, including The Worst Woman in Paris (1933), The Private Life
of Don Juan (1934), The Gay Deception (1935) and Peck's Bad Boy
with the Circus. Hume was married to actor Ronald Colman, with whom
she appeared on radio's Jack Benny Program and the radio situation
comedy, The Halls Of Ivy, from 1938 until his death in 1958. She was
later married to actor George Sanders, an old friend, from 1959 until her death
in 1967. Although she preferred the stage, British
actress/director/playwright CONSTANCE COLLIER (1878-1955) appeared in
films in both comic and dramatic roles, beginning with D. W. Griffith's
Intolerance (1916). Her best remembered films include Stage
Door (1937). Collier was esteemed as a drama coach; her pupils included
close friend Katharine Hepburn. Toned and soiled. Corners creased. Light surface
