I have not doubt that Ann was responsible for these touches, but I still have my doubts that she was actually driving around in a tractor. One of Ann&#8217;s many endeavors in England during the War was as a member of the Women&#8217;s Land Army and it seems that the level of labor during this time far exceeded any farming she may have engaged in back home.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.anndvorak.com\/cms\/Gallery\/?directory=Candids&amp;currentPic=36\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.anndvorak.com\/cms\/Gallery\/Candids\/Candid17.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"348\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If she and Fenton really did cultivate their ranches themselves, I certainly hope Ann did so in full hair and make-up like the above photos imply and that she wielded a scythe almost as big as her.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Year of Ann Dvorak: Day 84 For the majority of the time Ann Dvorak and Leslie Fenton were married, they were ranch dwellers.
