Every time Clark Gable walked into the commissary for lunch I just about dropped my fork. He was the epitome of a movie star -so romantic, such bearing, such friendliness. Years later he used to give me a peck on the cheek, which made me shiver. At that time, during the war, tables were never reserved, and I used to die in hopes that Clark Gable would have to sit at mine. -

“Nat and I were great friends,” says Liz, who shared with Wood the traumas of being a child star. “The four of us would spend weekends together. It was R.J. and Natalie and"—with a sniff of distaste she avoids the mention of his name—"the gentleman I was married to at the time.” [Eddie Fisher]

At 17, 5 ft. 4½ in., 112 Ibs., Elizabeth Taylor is a great beauty. She is a perfect type of the Black Irish. She has heavy black hair and brows that are also black and thick, but not a whit too thick to frame her large, luxuriantly lashed blue eyes, which darken into violet in the least shadow. Her complexion has been described by an ecstatic publicity man as “a bowl of cream with a rose floating in it.” Cameramen have paid her Hollywood’s ultimate compliment to beauty: “She doesn’t have a bad angle.”

Elizabeth’s womanly beauty usually makes strangers forget that she is, after all, only a youngster, but her behavior quickly reminds them of it. Beneath her breath-taking façade there is scarcely a symptom of sophistication. But Elizabeth, for all her youngish ways, is a purposeful girl in a way that Hollywood admires: she is feverishly ambitious to make a success in pictures.
