Marjorie Eileen Beebe (October 9, 1908 – May 9, 1983) was an American film actress.[1]
Beebe tired of working as an assistant in a magician's show, so she went to Hollywood to become an actress. She was rejected by several casting directors before she found work for one day at FBO Pictures Corporation. Three months of additional searching resulted in a job at Universal Pictures, where she stayed nine months, appearing in minor roles. In 1927, she began longer employment at Fox Film.[2]
Beebe married broker Clinton E. Randall in Yuma, Arizona, in May 1934; the marriage was annulled in Los Angeles on July 29, 1935, after Beebe told the judge that she had to sell her automobile for money to support Randall.[3]
