I'd just as soon stay home and raise babies

It was my first straight dramatic role, and the most adult, intelligent one I have ever played.

I was at a luncheon; and some cameras were trained on us. I dont' know whether they were for television or not. You know how little I know about cameras.

stars children coffee
The only parental authority I had was the studio. When I was a star, there was always somebody with me, to guard me. I was not allowed to be photographed with a cigarette, a drink, a cup of coffee or even a glass of water because someone might think it was liquor. When I left the studio I was already married and had two children, but I felt as sad as a child leaving home for the first time.

I'm not a career woman.
fighting
I don't like to fight.
