'i V ) 1 My Four Atv personality recalls when her big brothers, including her grow up as a woman This is Jeanne at age 16 months. By JEANNE CAGNEY 88 told to Until she suffered a series of multiple strokes in 1945, my mother Carrie Cagney was the core of our family. I was working as a radio actress in New York when my brothers wired me ' that she was dying. I flew to Los Angeles, where my brother Jimmy met me at the airport and rushed me to the hospital. When I finally got to Mom, she could no longer speak she could only move the ringers of one hand. Yet when she saw me she did something so beautiful I shall never forget it. Using her hand, Mom signaled us close to her. When her four boys and I were gathered around the bed, she. looked at Harry and slowly moved her first finger. She looked at Jimmy for a long moment and indicated her second finger. She -looked at Ed and indicated her ring fin ger. She looked at Bill and indicated her little finger. At last she looked at me and, folding her thumb over the palm of her hand, she closed all her fingers tightly over it. Mother was telling her boys to take care of me. In her heart Mom probably knew they didn't need to be told this. As far back as I can remember, my four brothers have always been there when I needed them. Our father died in an influenza epidemic in New York City six months before I was born. Harry, Jim, Ed, and Bill immediately took over as the men of the family. They became the greatest four fathers a girl could have. Mom used to tell me how delighted the boys were when I was born. We were liv ing in an old brownstone tenement on New York's East 78th Street. The doctor who attended my delivery at home had a hard job keeping the boys out of Moth er's room. Fortunately, there was a pa rade that day, and he chased them out of the apartment to watch it. . We had to struggle for food and rent money during my growing-up years. Har ry and Ed were studying to be doctors, Jimmy was trying to break into show business, Bill was going to high school, and everyone had a job in his spare time to earn money for the family. The boys also helped with the chores around the house, which often included me. For instance, Bill, the youngest, couldn't play baseball Saturday mornings until he'd washed all the sheets and pillow cases and then he couldn't go unless he took me. The boys never were ones for pamper ing. They were tough, practical men, , yet they loved children. I can recall only one time when one of the boys shouted at me. I was four years old, and Jimmy had me on his lap reading the Sunday comics aloud. He was in vaudeville then and had been up late the previous night. While reading, he started to yawn. I no ticed a gold object shining in his mouth (at four no one tells you about gold fill ings). During one especially big yawn, I reached into Jimmy's mouth to touch it. Jim choked and almost chomped down on my fingers. If he hadn't caught him self, he might have bitten my hand off. When he realized what had happened, he was so frightened he shouted, "For heaven's sake, honey, don't ever do that again!" I was shocked at being shouted IAjli!l.!Jn"e,!!!!'ed immy on Ho"ywod set. Her eldest brother, Dr. Harry., is at right. Fathers the hard but happy days film star Jimmy, helped and an actress Marya Saunders and Robert Gaines Jeanne prepares for show, "Queen for a Day.' - at, and I began to cry. Guilt-stricken, Jimmy hugged me against his chest and crooned to me until the tears stopped. Love came easily with the Cagneys, but it had nothing to do with coddling. My eldest brother Harry, for example, was often quite blunt with me. He's a realist and knows what can or can't be done. When I was in my first semester in col lege, I wanted to be a doctor like Harry and Ed. But one day Harry sat down with me and said, "Jeannie, you'll never make a good doctor." "Why?" I cried. "My marks are good." "You could learn all the facts about medicine," he said, "but temperamentally you're not suited for it. You haven't got the detachment necessary for a doctor." It was hard advice to swallow. Ed agreed, though, and it was with his en couragement that I first decided to be come an actress. I appeared with Jimmy in his Academy Award film, "Yankee Doodle Dandy," made a few other films, and then settled down in New York to study acting" seriously. During those student years, I contin ued a habit I had started years ear lier. By the time I- was 11, my brother Jimmy was famous and lived in Holly wood. I wrote to him constantly, telling him all I was thinking, reading, feeling. Jim was one of the biggest stars in Holly wood at the time, yet he answered every one of my letters as if they were the most important things in his life. We talked acting and theater and then . in 1948 Jimmy asked me to come to Holly wood and take a major part in his film, "The Time of Your Life." I had been working several years in New York radio, but I had serious doubts about accepting the movie offer. I could hear the critics referring to me as "Jimmy Cagney's little sister." Yet I loved the role he had for me. Jimmy and I talked on the phone, and I decided to try it. The character I played was very com plex, and as scene after scene went by I wasn't sure my performance was com ing through. Then one day while Jim and I were looking at the rushes a wonderful thing happened. To understand the mo ment fully you have to understand a Cag ney tradition. When we were living on 78th Street, we had a special way of acknowledg ing exceptional achievements. If I got very high grades in school, for example, the boys would look at my report card, nod solemnly, fish into their pockets, and hand me a dollar. If it wasn't a dollar, it would at least be an IOU. The scene Jimmy and I were watching had been very difficult for me, requiring careful characterization. As we sat in the projection room, Jim didn't say anything. When it was over he was silent for a long moment. Finally he stood up, cleared his throat, then reached over and dropped something in my lap. It was a $1 bill. Much has happened to me since that day. I am married now, have three chil dren, and .a television career on the "Queen for a Day" show. Whenever I consider myself and my life, I'm thank ful to Jimmy, Harry, Ed, and Bill, who gave so freely of their love and helped me to grow into a woman. They were four wonderful fathers.
