Happies+ at
Her Work
BY MAURY PAUL

NEW YORK, Dec. 3l.-Esme
O'Brien is one Gotham post
debutante who doesn't fritter
away her time.
Several years ago the pretty
and pert Esme was the most
glamorouS deb of her season.
Being photogenic, the lensmen
dogged her footsteps and, with
the exception of Brenda Frazier
Kelly, no deb" of the last dec
ade has been more persistently
photographed than Esme OBrien
was during her first season out"
in society.
Those numerous photographs
led to Esme's being given a
screen test and a fling at Holly
wood.
When she discovered the films
weren't for her-and vice versa,
Esme didn't NOPE and diSpair.
Not at all. The pert and pretty
granddaughter Of the late Nor
gan j. O'Brien Sr,, one of New
Yorks more distinguished ju-
ristS, set about getting herself a
job here in New York-and
eventually landed a berth al the
National Broadcasting Com
pany.
That's why she has Curtailed
her appearances at parties given
for our younger set.
And Esme enthusiastically in

she rated as a belle Of the stag

Of her-and her condition. For
