WENDY. LIKE IN PETER PAN
Wendy Barrie, who co-stars on CBS's Detect and Collect with Fred Uttal (Wednesdays, 9:30 P.M. EWT), came by her professional name legitimately — if second hand. She was born in London and her real name is Marguerite Wendy Jenkin, the "Wendy" being a compliment to the famous character created by Sir James Barrie in "Peter Pan." Sir James acted as godfather when Wendy was christened and, later, gave her permission to use that name.
Wendy was still an infant when she began her traveling career. Her mother took her to Hongkong, where Wendy's father's interests kept the family for several years. As soon as she was old enough to make the trip by herself, Wendy was sent back to London to attend the Holy Child and Assumption convents. She completed her education at a fashionable finishing school in Lausanne, Switzerland.
During vacation, and if her father felt lonely for her, Wendy packed her things and traveled far and wide to visit him. Sometimes, she traveled across the Atlantic and Canada to the Orient. Other times, she went through the Mediterranean and the Indian Ocean. Altogether she made some seven trips around the world.
Wendy wasn't bent on becoming an actress. In fact, she was having herself a fine time in a pretty dizzy social whirl in London — playing tennis, riding, playing the traditional English game of cricket and badminton. Then, as a lark, she and some of her society friends took a "flier" in the stage production of "Wonderbar." That rather turned out to be fun. So, later, when British film producer Alexander Korda spotted her having lunch in the Savoy Grill and offered her a screen test, Wendy jumped at the chance.
That screen test changed the social butterfly into a hard-working girl. Wendy got a contract and appeared in some 19 British made films.
In 1934, she grew restless. After all, she'd spent a long time in one place— long for a girl who'd grown up traveling, that is. Not quite sure what she wanted to do, she came to New York — without any letters of introduction or business contacts. Within ten days the scouts had spotted her redblonde hair and bluish-green eyes and distinctly photogenic face — and she was signed for a Hollywood engagement.
You've seen her in lots of pictures. There will be lots more, probably.
Wendy's a gay girl — has a little of the pixilated quality that you associate with the characters in James Barrie's plays. She has never had to diet and can eat anything she wants without gaining weight, which in itself is rather unique in Hollywood.
In case the boys are getting ideas — that's out. She married David Meyer not long ago, and they are very happy and intend to stay that way.
