ביוגרפיה

From Wikipedia

Sue Carol (October 30, 1906 – February 4, 1982) was an

American actress and talent agent. While at a social function in Los Angeles in

1927, a director offered her a part in a film. She took it and began playing

minor parts. Carol's film career lasted from the late 1920s into the 1930s, and

when it ended she became a talent agent; one of her clients was Alan Ladd, to

whom she was married from 1942 until his death in 1964.

Carol was born Evelyn Lederer in Chicago, Illinois to

Caroline, a German Jewish immigrant, and Samuel Lederer, a Jewish immigrant

from Austria. One of the WAMPAS Baby Stars, she performed in motion pictures

from 1927 until 1937.

Among the movies in which she appeared are Fox Movietone

Follies of 1929 and Girls Gone Wild (both 1929). Her films were made in

association with producer Cecil B. DeMille and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. After

retiring from acting in the late 1930s, Carol established her own talent

agency, the Sue Carol Agency. Among her discoveries was Julie London.

Carol died on February 4, 1982 in Los Angeles, California,

from a heart attack and is interred next to Alan Ladd in the Forest Lawn

Memorial Park Cemetery in Glendale, California.

For her contribution to the motion picture industry, Carol

has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 1639 N. Vine Street. In 1998, a

Golden Palm Star on the Palm Springs, California, Walk of Stars was dedicated

to her.
