Joe Schenck, a top 20th Century-Fox executive, once said to me that he really believed I had a future, and that was because I was the only girl who could survive so many bad pictures.

I used up every cent I had earned as an actress.

For years it never occurred to me to question the judgment of those in charge at the studio.

The Hollywood structure was monopolistic, run by four or five big studios.

Children don't understand about people loving each other and then suddenly not.

As an actress, I was trained to show emotion I did not feel, or no emotion at all.

I was not cut out to be a rebel.
