onetrack Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 (edited) Gee, we're going back multiple decades now, into the entertainment mob! I believe that's Irene Hervey, she's a bit of a stunner, with near perfect facial features. Her acting career spanned a vast number of films (some of which you may have heard of, or even watched!) - and she also went into TV in the early days. She was very badly injured in a car accident in 1943 and took 5 years off acting to recover - although she did act in one stage play during 1944. Her last acting part was playing the elderly radio station owner Madge, in Clint Eastwoods "Play Misty for Me", in 1971. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irene_Hervey https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0381154/ Edited September 17, 2023 by onetrack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red750 Posted September 17, 2023 Author Share Posted September 17, 2023 You're half right, onetrack. It's Irene Ryan, best known as Granny Moses in the Beverly Hillbillies. If you do an image search for Irene Ryan, the sepia photo comes up a number of times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgmwa Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Who would have guessed. Reminds me of me at 21 compared to the person I see in the mirror these days. Big difference and not for the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onetrack Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 (edited) The sepia photo IS of Irene Hervey. She has signed her name on the lower RH corner. If the sepia photo comes up on a number of sites as Irene Ryan, then those sites have the wrong photo for a younger Irene Ryan. IMDb (Internet Movie Database) is your best source for this stuff. The older lady IS Irene Ryan. https://m.imdb.com/name/nm0381154/mediaviewer/rm1424405761 Edited September 17, 2023 by onetrack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
