New York = Glcbal = Ma1die
Norman, star of "The Well,' Is
having a good time in Gotham. The
attractive actress VINO plays the
poignant role of the mother of a
little girl trapped jim a deep well,
is creating the same Kind of SEN
sation in Harlem as she does
emoting at the well seeking with
all the anguish of a mothers heart
to call down to her little one
buried 80 feet below.
While in New York, the movie
star has been a guest of society
editor and socially prominent Gerri
Major. Miss Norman is here speci-
fically for personal appearances in
connection with the picture.
Maidie Norman was born and
reared in Lima, Ohio, less than 30
years ago. She seems to have been
a born actress, for she earned her
first dollar at the age of nine CIV
ing recitals throughout Ohio. She
sang, danced and recited. In high
school she won oratorical contests
and through them won four-year
scholarship, all expenses paid, to
Bennett College, one of the nations
top Negro colleges, in Greensboro,
North Carolina. There, incidentally,
she met McEenry Norman whom
she married. They now have a
nine year old son.
In college, Miss Norman concen-
trated on dramatic acting and sing
ing and did radio work on the To-
cal Greensboro station. She took
a post graduate course in dramatic
acting at Columbia University.
Coming to Los Angeles, she
gained her first real break in the
professional theatre in 1916 when
she applied for a job in the pro-
duction, 1.-TWO In A Bed" at the
Musart Thea re. No part was
available, so she offered to under
study three female roles during
rehearsals. There being no stage
manager, she made stage manager
notes for the director and thus got
a fourth job on the production.
When the leading lady, Louise
Beavers, was unable to appear one
night, she stepped into her role.
Miss Norman, in her next pro-
duction, "The Bat" played the
leading role, that of an 80-year-old
woman. She played Katie in pro-
duction of broadway" at the Ac-
