This is a portrait of Ann during the time she was making A Life of Her Own<\/strong><\/a> at M-G-M in 1950. In all my years of collecting on Ann, I had never seen any publicity shots from the film, other than the standard scene stills, so I was thrilled when this popped up on eBay earlier in the year. She was 38 or 39 when this was taken, and her career would be done within two years. In A Life of Her Own<\/strong><\/a>, her character is a washed-up fashion model and it seems as if she were made-up to look a bit run down and past her prime, but this photo shows how gorgeous she still was.<\/p>\n This is one of my personal favorites, and I had submitted it to be included in the book. However, this ended up being one of the images that was cut in order to make room for the honeymoon scrapbook photos<\/a>, so it’s now here to enjoy instead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Year of Ann Dvorak: Day 146 This is a portrait of Ann during the time she was making A Life of Her Own at M-G-M in 1950.
