| What does a performer do while waiting for cues? Ask Mary Orr, but don't count on other players doing the same, for not many have her varied talents. Miss Orr, be it known, is a writer as well as a thespian and has combined her two careers with unusual success. Her original story on which the film "All About Eve" was based, won the 1950 Screen Writer's Guild Award. She has also written four Broadway plays, among them "Wallflower" and "Be Your Age," two which were produced in London and numerous TV scripts with her husband Reginald Denham, as well as many short stories on her own for the top magazines. A Canton, Ohio girl, she has been featured in such Broadway offerings as "Three Men On A Horse," "Bachelor Born," "Jupiter Laughs," "Wallflower" and most recently "Sherlock Holmes." These days while waiting for her single yet very important scene in "The Desperate Hours," she is writing a novel which is already earmarked for publication. | ||||||||
