We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

PRODUCER Edward Small was determined not to go ahead with his film, "Valentino," until he found an actor who was a positive double of the man once known as the screen's greatest lover. It took many years, but Small finally found Tony Dexter who looks enough like Valentino to be his twin brother. Tony's real name is Walter Reinhold Fleischmann. He was born in Nebraska. His father is a Lutheran minister stationed in Loveland, Colo. Tony graduated from St. CHaf's College, then took an M.A. at Iowa. Under the name of Walter Craig he started stage career. Tony, as Walter Craig, appeared with Eva La Callienne, Katharine Cornell.
