Photograph signed: "Dorothy McGuire/&/Marco/Polo!" in red
ink, B/w 5x7. Dorothy McGuire (1916-2001, born in Omaha, Nebraska)
was an American actress with over 50 TV shows and movies to her credit between
1943 and 1990. McGuire made her stage debut in Omaha in A Kiss for
Cinderella at age 13, opposite fellow Omaha native Henry Fonda, before
heading to Broadway in 1938. On Broadway, she started as an understudy and
eventual replacement in the role of Emily Webb in Our Town, the first of
eight Broadway performances. Her most successful Broadway performance was
Claudia, a comedy that ran 722 performances between 1941 and 1943 and
which launched her movie career. McGuire's first role was in the stage
adaptation of Claudia. McGuire's roles fluctuated between comedies
(Three Coins in the Fountain, 1954), character parts (Friendly
Persuasion, 1956) and drama (Gentleman's Agreement, 1947, for
which she received an Oscar nomination). Notable roles include Katie
Nolan, the beleaguered wife in A Tree Grows in Brooklyn (1945) and
the Virgin Mary (at age 46!) in The Greatest Story Ever Told (1965). Her
TV performances included Rich Man Poor Man (1976) and Little Women
(1979). Fine condition.
