MAE MURRAY T would be impossible for one to imagine that Mae Murray had been born any place but New York City. In her exotic roles on the screen she is the spirit of the Great White Way. To see her one would think that she had been dancing all her life. And so she has, practically. As a child Miss Murray took up the study of dancing and at the age of fifteen she had attracted so much attention by her marked talent that she was selected for a place in the Zeigfeld Follies, where she became known as the original Nell Brinkley Girl. She left the stage for a motion picture career in New York, and later moved to the Mae Murray in "reel" life (above) and real life (left) with her director-husband, Robert Leonard. Coast, where she was starred by Universal. During that time she made "The Bride's Awakening," "What Am I Bid?" "The Delicious Little Devil" and "Modern Love." About two years ago Tiffany productions signed her with Robert Leonard to make special features for Metro release. Among some of the pictures that have been made are: "Peacock Alley," "Fascination," "Broadway Rose," "Jazzmania" and "The French Doll." Miss Murray is five feet two inches tall, weighs 115 pounds, and has blonde hair and blue eves. 175
