Minoltaman Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 By any chabce was it Lola Allbright ???? Link to post Share on other sites
knitter45 Posted March 23, 2008 Author Share Posted March 23, 2008 She (Lola Albright) is one of the Calendar Girls, but the girl I'm looking for is never featured with a long close up. The most on screen time I've seen of her is in MMISL. She's the girl in the blue hat and dress who winks at Tom Drake and gives him her seat on the trolley. Thanks for checking, tho!

rainingviolets21 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 My research came up with the name Virginia Davis... Link to post Share on other sites
knitter45 Posted March 24, 2008 Author Share Posted March 24, 2008 RV, I just "googled" her, and she sounds really interesting, but not our girl. The one I'm looking for was in *Meet Me In St. Louis,* but not in *The Harvey Girls*. The lady you found was born in Kansas City, and so was I! Wouldn't *that* have been a coincidence??? Thanks for searching. How did you come up with her name, and do you know of any pictures of her? the IMDB site doesn't have one. Thanks again, Nancy Link to post Share on other sites
rainingviolets21 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 She was quite beautiful and was Walt Disney's first star, she was in the Alice series, before Mickey Mouse, when she was just a child, she was the live action in an animated film ; done in black and white and still silent --Five years before Steamboat Willie,, she later on played bit parts in many movies ..in the Harvey Girls she was in the dance sequence when Marjorie Main says pick your partner for THE WALTZ , she was all in purple and lavender and was blonde and the prettiest Harvey Girl on the dance floor...( I don't know how to post photos, I never learned) Link to post Share on other sites
knitter45 Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 If you scroll down thru this thread, there is a photo on the trolley. Helen Gilbert is sitting next to Tom Drake, our mystery lady is BEHIND Judy Garland, in blue. There is also a photo of Helen Gilbert in a Mickey Rooney movie, and you can tell it isn't the same person as the lady I'm trying to find. Link to post Share on other sites

knitter45 Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share Posted September 27, 2009 Hi everyone! Has anyone ever figured out who our mystery lady is? Since the last time I checked, I've seen her in The Pirate too. She's in the first number with Gene Kelley, when he first arrives in town. She's the slinky native woman in white who curls around him, then he moves on to all the other women he sees. Link to post Share on other sites
