Griffith. In this recording Larkin also recalls her war effort and the appearances he arranged for her. How she became "America's Sweetheart" is described. The interview concludes with a description of "Pickfair", the home of Fairbanks and Pickford, and its faithful "retainers".Language:EnglishNotes:Detailed holdings information: -
