T T is some fifteen years since Scottish - bom David Niven made his first professional appear- ance before a film camera and so began the career that replaced the one for which he was originally destined and educated. He had, in fact, spent five years in the Army on leaving Sandhurst, but peacetime conditions made a soldier's life too dull for his lively and adventurous disposition, and his arrival in Hollywood marked the end of a tour of the world. The war brought him back to England post- haste, and he served in the Rifle Brigade until his de- mobilisation in 1945. Since then he has divided his time between American and British films, appearing in, among others. Bonnie Prince Charlie, Enchant- ment. A Kiss for Corliss, The Elusive Pimpernel and Kiss of Fire. It was while making Bonnie Prince Charlie over here that he met Mrs. Hjordis Tersmeden, and they were married in Ken- sington-in 1948. David Niven lives with his wife and two sons by his first mar- riage in a beautiful hilltop home in Pacific Pali s ad e s. He was pre- v i o u s l y married to Primula Rollo, who died in an accident in 1946. In the swimming pool, with David, junior, on his right, and Jamie (in the swimming belt).
