No place, no date. In full: "desert in summer, warmer than the higher
country in winter, though we do have snow from time to time; just a quite ideal
climate. I no (sic) longer act, but write a column for our weekly
newspaper and am attempting a book. Have you tried writing? It's great fun. Good
luck to you in, still equally beautiful, I trust, Kent - Sincerely" Lois
Moran (1909-1990) danced with the Paris National Opera and made a few
French films before coming to Hollywood in the mid 1920's. She played
daughter Laurel Dallas in the silent movie version of Stella Dallas
(1925). She starred in some early talking pictures, including a role as
Al Jolson's love interest in Mammy (1930). However, she wasn't very
comfortable in talking films and retired from the screen in 1931. She had a
brief affair with writer F. Scott Fitzgerald, who based the character Rosemary
Hoyt in Tender is the Night (1934) on Moran. She married Secretary of
Commerce Clarence M. Young in 1935. Moran reappeared as a regular on the
television series Waterfront (1954-1955). She was married to Clarence
M. Young from 1935 until his death in 1972. Fine
condition.
