What was the complete name of Thin Man actress Myrna?

Answer 1

Myrna Loy [August 2, 1905-December 14, 1993] was born Myrna Adele Williams, in Radersburg, Montana. She was the daughter of Adelle Mae Johnson and David Franklin Williams. Her mother had been a student at the American Conservatory of Music, in Chicago, Illinois. Her father was a banker, rancher, and real estate developer. He was said to have named his daughter after a train station whose name he liked. Loy began her career as a choreographer and dancer, at the age of 12. The following year, she moved to California, after the death of her father. A couple of years later, in 1921, she was the model for sculptor Harry Winebrenner's statue Spiritual, which was a landmark in front of the Venice High School in Venice, California. The statue became even more famous with its incorporation into the opening scenes of the film Grease. Her screen career began in 1925, with the silent film What Price Beauty? She made the changeover to talkies, in 1927, with an uncredited chorus role in The Jazz Singer. At first, she became known for her roles in musicals, in the 1930s. But she made the switch to mystery dramas, with Manhattan Melodrama, and the first of the popular Thin Man movies, in 1934. By the time of World War II, she had become one of Hollywood's most successful, most employed and employable, and highest paid actresses. And her roles ran the gamut of film experience, from mysteries to musicals to drama to comedy. Loy's film career lasted into the 1960s, with From the Terrace, Midnight Lace, and The April Fools, which was her last film, in 1969. She kept up her stage career, into the 1970s, with a role on Broadway, in the 1973 production of The Women.
