1940s Hollywood star beautiful actress Ann Blyth
Born 16 February 1928 in a provincial town of New York state, Ann Blyth was the second child in the family of Harry and Nan. Unfortunately, her parents divorced soon after her birth. As a result, the mother with her two daughters had to survive. Besides, this was the peak of the worst economic crisis, known as the Great Depression. Father never provided any assistance to his family and appeared only when Ann had already become a famous actress.

Raised by her mother in Catholic traditions, Ann, however, has shown great singing and acting talents since childhood. Noteworthy, 13-year-old Annd debuted on Broadway, and at the age of 15 she became a Hollywood actress! When Ann was 18, her mother died (June 1946).

And the peak of her popularity in Hollywood was in the middle of the last century. In fact, nature has endowed Ann in full – she had an attractive appearance, and innate acting talent. And most importantly, she sang beautifully, having a soprano professionally delivered voice. Thus, she had everything to achieve success in the world of show business. The actress successfully starred both in musicals and in films of other genres – dramas, noir, comedy, westerns, adventure and historical.

Anne’s personal life never served as a pretext for gossip – in her interviews on this topic the actress was always very laconic and never tried to show off this aspect of her life. But despite this, some of the “personal” details of Blyth’s biography are certainly known. For example, her first man, by her own admission, was actor Scott Brady, with whom she was tied up in the fall and winter of 1946/47.

Then, she was credited with numerous novels, as soon as she appeared at a secular party accompanied by some man.
In 1952, her friend, singer Dennis Day, introduced Ann to his brother, gynecologist James McNulty. Their acquaintance grew first into a strong friendship, and then marriage. They got married on June 27, 1953 in North Hollywood, among friends. The actress has always dreamed of a big family, so five children were born in this family. This marriage was happy and long – 54 years, until the death of her husband in 2007.
