Listen to me on TV CONFIDENTIAL:
As always, the further we go back in Hollywood history, the more that fact and legend become intertwined. It's hard to say where the truth really lies.
November 12, 1990
Actress Eve Arden, best known for playing the title
role in the radio and TV series Our Miss Brooks, dies at age 78.
Arden was born in Mill Valley, California, and began
acting as a teenager. By age 22, she was appearing in the Ziegfeld Follies. She
made two films under her birth name-Eunice Quedens-before her first picture as
Eve Arden (Oh, Doctor! in 1937). She frequently played the
kind-but-sarcastic girlfriend of the lead female role. Her films included No,
No, Nanette (1940), Mildred Pierce (1945), and Anatomy of a
Murder (1959). Her last film was Grease II (1982). She published an
autobiography, The Three Phases of Eve, in 1985.
To quote the Bicentennial Minute, "And that's the way it was".
Stay Tuned
