[Games] Re: Old Hollywood Insp. CAF (Part 1)
Born in 1914, Rosa was the oldest child of a German immigrant family in Pennsylvania. Although she had yet to dye her hair platinum, she was still striking and had always possessed that doe-like gaze, which later become her trademark. Before fame she worked at textile factory, using her meager paycheck to support her parents. It was on a trip to New York to visit her aunt that she was spotted, soon finding work as a model, and eventually, an actress. Her first big role came in 1935, when she starred in "The Cigarette Girl". Though her name at birth was Rosa Huber, the studios decided to give her something more star-worthy.
The name they gave her was: Jo Jennings Her Family:LN: HuberDH: Franz Heinrich Huber

___Soon after, Jo became a household name, starring box-office hit after hit. One of her most memorable roles would be as the seductive Madame Veruschka in the classic noir film “The Faded Rose”. In 1940 at age twenty-six, she was married to fellow actor, Leslie Claude Stewart, who she met on the set of her 1939 romance film, A Princess in Paris. He was eight years her senior. They were the perfect Hollywood couple, her with her perfect blonde curls and willowy figure, him with his dark hair, blue eyes, and smoky baritone. Just seven months after their marriage, Jo would give birth to a baby girl, much to the tabloids shock. Only three years later, Jo would file for a divorce. The court proceedings were splashed across the news, and filled with every sordid detail, from the mistresses to the drugs and Jo’s supposed alcoholism. Despite it all, she would win full custody of her child.LN: StewartDH: Leslie Claude Stewart

____Despite Jolie playing a younger version of her mother's character in “Betty,” she would eventually shun the fast-paced and, in her own words, "shallow" lifestyle of Hollywood. Jolie became a well-respected OB/GYN in New York, and married a pediatrician. After years of resentment between the two, Jo and Jolie rekindled their relationship via the birth of Jolie’s first child. Now, they maintain a friendship, and spend the holidays together.LN: AaronsonDH: David Efrayim Aaronson
