NO TIME ON HER HANDS . . .
So young — and so pretty — that no one would blame lher if she just wanted to have fun, Beryl Vaughn is a young lady who wastes no time. What's more, she hasn't wasted much time since she was twelve. That's when her career started.
Beryl, whom you hear as Norma Starr on Bachelor's Children over CBS, Monday through Friday at 10:45 AM, was born in Detroit. What she did to keep herself busy before she was twelve is somewhat of a mystery, but after that, her life's an open radio switch. She made her radio debut on the "Lone Ranger", originating from the automobile metropolis. That wasn't enough for very long, however, and soon she took over the assistant director's chores on WXYX's Children's Theatre of the Air. For this, she and her young associates won the Variety Showmanship award in 1936. The next year, she lined up with WWJ and became its Children's Director.
In 1940, she went to Hollywood, which was to be expected, and was signed for a leading role in Columbia's "Girls Under 21", which she says was a female version of the "Dead End Kids". After that she did a small part in RKO's "Let's Make Music". While in Hollywood, Beryl took a fling at the theatre, too, appearing in a play called, "Every Moi For Himself", and travelled east to the Guild Theatre in New York with the show. Unfortunately, the play had a whirlwind visit on New York's boards and in a very short time Beryl found herself back in Hollywood and in front of a microphone.
Most radio actors and actresses find that the theatre has a strange and irresistible fascination. Beryl is no exception. She could have gone on and on working on the Lux and Screen Guild shows on the air from Hollywood. But she didn't. An agent whispered enticingly in her ear that a Chicago company of "Claudia" was being cast and that she should be perfect for the lead. It turned out that the agent's rumor was a little late. By the time she got to Chicago, the show was ready to open — without her.
Chicago is a big radio town, though, and Beryl didn't have to beg for work. She auditioned for Mutual and that was all that was necessary. She played the parts of Holly Emerson on Helpmate, Eunice Powell on Helen Trent, Faith Richards on Road to Life and scores of other parts.
Beryl also does fashion modelling whenever she gets a chance, which is pretty often.
Maybe it's remembrance of her theatre days, but Beryl likes to have an audience in the studio when she's acting. She likes to feel the reaction of the listeners. She also likes dogs, babies, music and sailing. She has three major ambitions — to produce a top-flight children's show some day, to write a first-rate play and to make a trip to South America. Being a diligent young person with ideas in her head, she's very likely to realize all three of these — and then will probably assign herself a few more.
