Thx for posting. Clara looks adorable here...but most importantly, happy. I prefer to think of her that way rather than think of the sadness she later experienced.
Many thanks for posting this, ive never heard her speak outside of her movies, nice to see her in a more natural, everyday setting :) this is fantastic!
CLARA LOOKED SOO BEAUTIFUL HERE and this did get enough exposure at the time that Movie offers started to pour in , and she was going to step into a good part UNDER TWO FLAGS i think that was the title but again she was pregnent
Clara retired from films [her last ones were for Fox] in 1933, and settled down with husband Rex Bell, occasionally appearing in public, as this 1937 excerpt demonstrates. Louella Parsons (with her husband, "Docky" Martin, an absolute lush) had yet to become the "Hollywood vulture" of celebrity gossip columnists...
@ARJAY1962 Mostly for being oft-engaged. She was engaged to Jackie Googan, John Helm (a pilot who was killed), Pinky Tomlin but only married---once--- to pilot Dick Merrill who was 1-1/2 years younger than her dad (!). Toby was actually really intelligent and from a good family. Her brother became a billionaire real estate tycoon.
@Impalamark64 She is a cutie,but only when she's thin.She put too much weight on from 1929 onwards.She was a beautiful woman,but she usually had the most awful hairdo.Her hair was wild and unruly and looked better matted down in the classic 1920s style.But what a sweetheart

Clara is without a doubt the most adorable actress to have ever lived. She's so cute.

Louella Parson's husband was a doctor who fed her info on what stars contracted VD and she used the info to dig more dirt on bigger stars.
