First Starring Role
Time: Thursday Dec 30, 1948
Place: U.S.
Details: Her only film at the studio (Columbia Pictures) was the low-budget musical Ladies of the Chorus (1948), in which she had her first starring role as a chorus girl who is courted by a wealthy man, but her contract was not renewed in September 1948. Ladies of the Chorus was released the following month but was not a success.
Best-effort ordering. Some events may appear out of order since many are only known to the year, but they are usually around the same period.
