IRENE youth in New York and on
Long Island. and later her par
entS sent her to finishing school
in Paris. At II, she was formally
presented in Baltimore and
Washington, becoming one of the
most popular debutantes of the
younger set.
1t was her mothers wish that
she keep away from the stage.
and Constance had no thought of
going on the stage.
AT an Equity ball which Miss
Bennett attended with her father,
Samuel Goldwyn, always on the
lookout for picture talent, sug-
gested she make a test for the
screen and offered her the role
in "Cytherea." She accepted, and
was not only featured, but ran
away with the picture.
More roles, then a contract with
Metro, and Miss Bennett married
the young millionaire, Philip
Plant. He objected to her screen
work, and she was content to give
IL up. Her contract was abroga.
ted by mutual consent.
Following her divorce. she ac-
copied a long-term contract with
Pathe, and returned to America
to resume her career.
Miss Bennett has fair hair. blue
eyes, is five feet four inches tall,
and weighs about one hundred
and ten pounds.
