Joan Caulfield

Joan Caulfield carries the full romance of Hollywood's golden age for me. Discovered by Broadway producers, on stage by 1943 and signed to Paramount, hers reads like the classic studio-era fairy tale. Yet she was more than a pretty face: a Columbia-educated model who later wrote screenplays, which hints at real versatility behind the glamour. The star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame confirms her place in that era's firmament. She passed in 1991, but the poised, gracious presence she left on black-and-white film has not faded. I like paying respect to performers who defined a vanished kind of elegance.
