| LITA GREY was born in Hollywood, California, on April 15th., 1908, and received
her education mainly from private tutors. She is a descendant of an old
Southern California Spanish family, and was chosen by Charlie Chaplin from
more than a score of talented and beautiful young women who applied for
an opportunity to appear in Chaplin's "The Kid." From her very
first appearance it was evident that youthful Miss Grey possessed exceptional
capabilities, rare dramatic expression marking her screen work. The friendship
which began with Mr. Chaplin's interest in his new leading lady, has since
culminated in romance, "Charlie" having married delightful little
Miss Grey, in Empalme, Mexico, where they were on location. A brilliant
future is predicted for Lita, who is a brunette of a type characteristic
of the Spanish race, weighs about 115 lbs., and is 5 feet 2 inches tall. |
