Marilyn Knowlden – 92, $500K
Marilyn Knowlden grew famous in the ‘30s as a child star, but she voluntarily walked out of show business to concentrate on her education. In 1944, she performed on Broadway Rhythm and left to enroll in Mills College in the hopes of obtaining a music and drama degree. As it seemed, she became quite an accomplished playwright! At the age of seventy, she landed the leading role in My Fair Lady.
She published her autobiography titled Little Girl Big Pictures in 2011. Knowlden’s daughter digitized a scrapbook of many clippings and photos of her and they can be viewed at www.marilynknowlden.com.
