Actress, playwright, screenwriter, and iconic sex symbol Mae West created a scandal--and a sensation--on Broadway with her play Sex in 1926. Sentenced to ten days in prison for obscenity, she went in a convict and emerged a star. Her next play, Diamond Lil, was a smash, and she would play variations on Diamond Lil for virtually her entire career. In 1930s Hollywood she saved Paramount Studios from bankruptcy. Her screenplays included some notorious one-liners that have become part of Hollywood lore, but behind the clever quips was Mae's deep desire to see women treated equally with men. She fought the double standard of the time that permitted men things that women would be ruined for doing Also listed Bette Davis SIGNED, Ramon Novarro, Robert Mitchum, William Powell, Veronica Lake, Norma Shearer, Diana Ross SIGNED, Myrna Loy SIGNED, Olivia de Havilland SIGNED, Sharon Tate, Hurrell, Errol Flynn & other Hollywood items ...!!!
