Virginia Walker

  • ... that Virginia Walker was signed to a Hollywood film contract on the basis of her picture in a magazine advertisement for soap? Source: "The dusky-haired socialite gave a 'testimonial' for a well-known soap product which appeared with her photograph in a double-page spread in a number of newspapers and magazines. A Universal Studio scout was attracted. He sought Virginia Walker, signed her to a contract, and brought her to the Coast." (The Boston Globe)

  • Article is new and long enough. QPQ has been completed. Earwigs detected no plagiarism or close-paraphrasing. Hook is cited, interesting, and short enough for DYK. Morgan695 (talk) 23:34, 12 February 2020 (UTC)
