Today's
Feature
( Story
Dorothy Arzner, a quiet girl
who has the habit of assuming
tho Napoleonic attitude of stand
ing with her hands clasped be
hind her back, is the only woman
motion picture director under,
contract to Paramount.
Her habit of stance Is tbe only
characteristic she shares with tbe
great Xorsican. la every other
respect, she is a very feminine
person; quiet, retiring, smartly
tailored, and smoothly efficient.
Dorothy Arzner was born in
Los Angeles and was graduated
from the University of Southern
California and the Westlake
School for Girls. At that time of
her life she wanted to be a doctor
of medicine.
The war interrupted that study.
The Armistice caught her in New
York, on her way to France to
drive an ambulance. She thought
she would return to medicine but
found that no longer could she
abide it.
A chance visit took her to the
Paramount tudios where she saw
William de Mills at work direct
ing a picture. From that time on
she knew what she wanted.
Her first step was to become a
studio stenographer. Then she
worked on stories. Next she be
came a film cutter, or editor, and
became known as one of the best
in the business. She pieced "The
Covered Wagon" together for
James Cruse, worked with him
again oa "Old Ironsides," and
with his help finally won her
chance to direct.
Her first picture was "Fashions
For Women." Her second was
"Tea Modera Commandments."
Twice she has directed Clara
Bow; la "Got Your Man," and
"The Wild Party." Sb bow is
directing "Sarah and Son," with
Ruth Chatierton.
