DORIS DAY
Letter of agreement regarding her employment on CBS radio
Document signed: "Doris Day". 1p, 8½x11. Burbank,
California, 1952 October 22. Contract between Michael Curtiz
Productions and Day setting forth terms for her services for Columbia
Broadcasting System. Known for her wholesome, "girl-next-door" good looks and
sparkling personality, "America's Sweetheart" was one of the most popular and
highest paid actresses by the early 1950s. After her would-be dancing career
was sidelined by an accident, Day had turned to singing, first touring with
bands and then introducing hit after hit in a string of romantic
comedies. Nominated for an Academy Award for Pillow Talk (1959),
she also brightened up the silver screen opposite such romantic leading men as
Rock Hudson and Cary Grant. Her singing career was just as hot as her acting
career, and her hit from the movie The ManWho Knew Too Much, "Que
Sera, Sera", won an Oscar. In 1987, she established the Doris Day Animal
League, America's premier lobbying organization dedicated to focusing attention
on legislative issues involving the humane treatment of animals. Staple holes
and light creases at top edge. Otherwise, fine condition.
