I was surprised to learn that Carole was friends somehow with Miriam Cooper. Do you know anything about their friendship?FlickChickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17351624749230610755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9143901229925085760.post-25716574040910539002011-04-19T19:35:58.129-04:002011-04-19T19:35:58.129-04:00According to Larry Swindell, when Carole Lombard w...According to Larry Swindell, when Carole Lombard went to New York in 1930 to film "Fast And Loose" at the Paramount Astoria studios, Florenz Ziegfeld, impressed with her beauty, tried to recruit her for the Follies.
