| WILLIAM HAINES was selected two years ago by Casting Director Robert B.
McIntyre, who was in charge of the "new faces" hunt, from thousands
of applicants in New York. His first big chance was in "Three Wise
Fools." Haines is a Virginian by birth, and was educated at the Staunton
Military Academy, where he was much interested in the theatricals. He later
lived in Richmond and in New York City, where he continued dramatic work
as a diversion until the opportunity came to enter pictures as an artistic
ward of the Goldwyn Company. He was born January 2, 1900. Not married. |
