More bonus Shirley, with (are you sitting down? this is a lot) Cathleen Nesbitt, Jean-Pierre Aumont, Carrie Nye, and Nina Foch, in A Second String, by Lucienne Hill via a novel by Colette (1960). Alas, 29 performances only.

And one final Shirley for the day, with Van Heflin and I don't know but she looks very familiar, in The Philadelphia Story.

I have often wondered what Shirley Booth thought about Katharine Hepburn being in the film versions of The Time of the Cuckoo (Summertime) *and* Desk Set.

Mr. Baxter represented her. He was the agent in town who could draw blood from Merrick.
