WHAT YOU' D CALL A TROUPER
In these days of avid curiosity about the little-known countries of the Eastern war fronts, there's an actress in the NBC studios who can give you all the answers. She's Muriel Starr, the "Mrs. Garvin" of the Young Widder Brown serial — Monday through Friday at 4:45 p.m. (EWT) -over the NBC network. From first-hand experience, Miss Starr knows the cities and obscure places of every continent, island and peninsula on the globe.
She was born in a lumber camp near Montreal, Canada — which is a far cry from the glitter of Broadway, where she was to be a star just seventeen years later. Her first appearance on the glamor street came when, at the age of five, she was brought to New York to act in a play written by a friend of the family. She was seen in that performance by Harry Miner, one of the most successful producers of that day, and immediately engaged to appear with James A. Hearn in "Shore Acres."
After that beginning, Miss Starr hardly missed a season in the theatre. She appeared with De Wolfe Hopper and many of the matinee idols of the period. At thirteen she even conformed with theatrical tradition by being stranded with a company in a small town in Connecticut. Luckily, another traveling company appeared there very soon and Miss Starr was able to replace the leading lady in that company. She played the part of a mother with a child of five — and did it well. Off stage, she continued to wear her long brown hair in a braid hanging down her back.
By the time she was fifteen Miss Starr was doing a dramatic sketch in vaudeville with William Hawtrey, a distinguished British actor. The name of the sketch was "The Child Wife," which was appropriate enough. Miss Starr's seventeenth birthday found her a full-fledged star on Broadway. She signed a long term contract with Oliver Morosco for his production of "The Truth Wagon." After that play's Broadway run, Miss Starr went with the show to the West Coast. Then came an offer to go to Australia for six months. Miss Starr took that offer and with it the first step on a series of theatrical journeys that was to take her to practically every part of the world.
After leaving Australia, she acted in the East Indies, New Zealand, India, the Orient, Africa, London and the European continent. She returned to Broadway only once in 20 years to appear in "John Hawthorne" with Warren William. Then, seven years ago, she came back for good, played in Maxwell Anderson's "The Star Wagon" and decided to retire.
But before long idleness palled and radio beckoned. In a very short time, Miss Starr had a score of dramatic parts to her credit in this field, too, among them roles in Just Plain Bill, Amanda of Honeymoon Hill, Kitty Foyle and Young Widder Brown.
