Sandra Dee missed a lot of teen-age fun for a career but so would other giris to play this scene opposite John Saxon! r;liSilij--;i J I Ml by Peer J. Oppenhtimer Sixteen-year-old Sandra Dee starred in six pictures during this year, including the soon-to-be-released "The Restless Years." She's been called the new Liz Tay lor, the Cinderella girl of 1958, the most beautiful, talented, and envied young actress in Hollywood. Some of this may be true. But there is another more compelling reason why she has attained such success so early in life: a persistence that would do credit to a 32-yeai -old! She knows what she wants, how to get it and, if necessary, what to give up for it. Sandra was born in Bayonne, N. J., on April 23, 1942. Her parents were divorced when she was two; three years later her mother married Eu gene Douvain, wealthy real-estate man and business manager who did his best to spoil his pretty stepchild. He died in 1956, shortly before Sandra moved to Hollywood with her mother. "Sandy always had a mind of her own," admits Mrs. Douvain. "I re member when she was about four and wouldn't eat her cereal. Nothing would change her mind. I could stuff all the cereal I wanted into her mouth, and she'd just keep it there till she turned blue in the face." The same persistence was evident in her introduction to acting. A Kid Going Places As a 21-month-old, Sandy was a little extrovert who loved singing, dancing, and just chattering which gave her older cousin and her parish priest in Bayonne the idea of putting her in the annual Christmas pageant at their church. She was delighted, but during the first rehearsal was so scared that she wouldn't open her mouth. As soon as she got back in the car, however, she promptly started singing and chattering again. This went on for three weeks, until the priest finally decided to let her dress up prettily in a peasant outfit and stand on the stage simply to add beauty to the scene. But a curious change took place when she was actually facing an audi ence. Suddenly she not only remem bered the part she was supposed to have played, but all the other parts as well and ran all over the stage im personating everybody else! After that, there was no doubt in her mind what she wanted to become. No other opportunities arose, though, until she was 12. Then, as a member of the Girl Scouts, she modeled at one of her troop's benefit fashion shows. When the editor of a magazine for girls saw Sandra, he promptly sug gested she pose for a cover. Her stepfather just as promptly ve toed the idea. He had dealt with show people long enough to know the pit falls of the profession, and he had every intention of keeping Sandra out of it. But he underestimated her tre mendous will power. From the moment he arrived at his club, Sandra had him paged every few minutes, wanting to know if he'd changed his mind. Once he had to get up from lunch three times to tell her' he hadn't! But he finally did and, as a result, Harry Conover signed her as a model. Her stepfather gave his bless ing after warning Sandra he'd stop her career if it ever went to her head. A iter a successful modeling career, Sandra became a television actress when an agent spotted her at Rockefeller Center and, assum ing she was in show business, recom mended her for the part of Vaughn Monroe's daughter on the singer's show. She got the part and in quick succession appeared in a number of other shows as well as a series of highly paid TV commercials before Universal-International producer Ross Hunter offered her the lead opposite John Saxon in "The Restless Years." By coincidence, two other major stu dios wanted her the same day. Appearing in six films in only twice as many months meant a heavy sched ule for Sandra; in addition to her career, she had to keep up with her schooling, a minimum of three hours a ll Family Weekly, November 30, 1951
