July 15, 1944:
Our women are really going places and doing big things in the movies. Just today I learned that Kay Francis reports Sept. 1 at Monogram Studios as co-producer of “Divorce.” Jeffrey Bernerd, who has done so much for this little company, was responsible in bringing Kay there as star and co-producer.
Jeffrey Bernerd, in case you don’t recall is the stepfather of Donald Wolfe, author of “The Black Dahlia Files.”
