HELEN LYNCH
— —
IELEN LYNCH deprived Billings, Mont., of much of its charm when she started out for Hollywood and a moving picture career. The winner of a beauty contest conducted by a Billings newspaper, Helen had no difficulty in gaining entree to the studios. Important parts followed in rapid succession, with the result that she is now looked upon as' one of the most promising stars on the screen.
In spite of the fact that things have gone along quite favorably for her in pictures. Miss Lynch has one supreme grievance against the producers, directors and casting executives — they invariably engage her for light comedy roles instead of assigning her to dramatic parts. While she does very well in comedies and comedy-dramas, she wrould much rather "emote," tears and everything. Just to be sad for six or seven reels is Helen's pet desire. Or she will compromise by letting down into a laugh once in a while, but the role to measure up to her ideals must have at least some grief in it.
Prior to joining the cast of "The Dangerous Age," a Louis B. Mayer-First National attraction, Miss Lynch played leading roles in two Marshall Neilan productions— "Fools First" and "Minnie." Among her other recent efforts are parts in "The
Affairs of Anatol," "The House that Jazz Built," "The Modern Madonna," "Midnight," "Glass Houses," "Honor Bound," and "What's a Wife Worth?"
Miss Lynch is a great outdoor girl. She spends a great deal of her "off screen" time in driving her car, and she swims and dances.
She is about twenty years old.
She stands five feet, four inches tall, and weighs about 120 pounds. Her hair is blonde and her eyes are brown.
Miss Lynch lives in the midst of Hollywood among other screen luminaries.
