Born 1917 in Buhl, Idaho, American actress Marjorie Reynolds was a featured child actress in such silent films as Scaramouche (1923) at age 6. At age 8 she stopped acting to concentrate on education until leaving school at 16 to play a ballerina in Herbert Brenon’s Wine, Women and Song (1933).
Reynolds appeared in more than 50 films, including the 1942 musical Holiday Inn, in which she and Bing Crosby introduced the song “White Christmas” in a duet, albeit with her singing dubbed. She has a star in the Television section of the Hollywood Walk of Fame, at 1525 Vine Street.
Reynolds had suffered from congestive heart disease, she collapsed and died in 1997, in Manhattan Beach, California, while walking her dog. She was 79 years old. Take a look at these gorgeous photos to see portraits of a young Marjorie Reynolds in the 1940s.
