Betty Bronson

BETTY BRONSON was born in Trenton, New Jersey, on November 17th., 1906, and in childhood lived in Los Angeles, where her family made their home, and where she attended St. Mary's Academy. When 8 years old she returned east and attended a New York City Public School, and later was a pupil at the East Orange High School. During this period she studied dancing under the noted Fokine. She has had a varied career thus far, and now bids fair to become one of the great stars of the screen. Her first big screen opportunity came in the title role in Barrie's "Peter Pan," though this opportunity was not achieved until the youthful star had served her apprenticeship, playing extras in Metro and Paramount pictures. She is a gifted young miss, speaks French, dances and loves to read. She is slightly built, is 5 feet tall, weighs 100 lbs., and has brown hair and blue eyes.
