Helene Whitney (1914-1990) |
|
- Pamela Blake, Millionaire Playboy, 1940. Whitney (later Reynolds) was to be part of Joe Penner’s last film for RKO. Then, she wasn’t. No way to treat a lady with such important, all-American connections. She was (a) the grand-niece of Alexander Graham Bell, himself; (b) a cousin (one removed) of President Theodore Roosevelt; and married Julian Louis Reynolds, heir to the RJ Reynolds tobacco fortune, in 1936!
