career in the theatre dates back to the time when she was three years old. She was a star at the age of 16, and since then her work has been of a character to command the respect and admiration of the critics and to win the hearts of the playgoers.

New York enjoyed it all last season at the Henry Miller theatre, and her tour of the principal cities this season has been one continu
