album leaf. Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. (1909-2000), the son of the dashing actor
of the 1920s and Anna Beth Sully, the daughter of an industrialist, was
raised by his mother after his parents' divorce in 1918. At the age of 13, he
starred in Lasky's Stephen Steps Out, an unsuccessful attempt to exploit
the Fairbanks name. Although the younger Fairbanks, a movie producer as well
as an actor, appeared in some 75 films, his father took little interest in
his son's career, and the two did not become close friends until the early
1930s. His feature films included Stella Dallas (1926), Little
Caesar (1930), The Prisoner of Zenda (1937), Gunga Din (1939)
and Sinbad the Sailor (1947), and Fairbanks also appeared in a number of
made-for-TV movies and hosted the anthology series, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr.
Presents (1952-1955). In the 1930s, he was married to actress Joan
Crawford. Binding holes at blank left margin. Fine
condition.
