Paul Hansen


Here’s a puzzle. I understood this photo to be a self-portrait of the photographer Paul Hansen (1902-2000), but I noticed that the reverse of the photo had Vining Thurman (it looks like) crossed out above the name Paul Hansen. There was also Paul (or Poul) Hansen (1886-1967), the opera singer, a contemporary of the photographer, so now I’m all at sea.

Adrienne Morrison

Carroll played the part of Jimmy Grupton in MAKERS OF LIGHT (1922). Ian Maclaren was another member of the cast, along with Adrienne Morrison (1883-1940), the wife of Richard Bennett and the mother of Barbara, Constance, and Joan Bennett. This photo, identified as Mrs. Bennett, is by Paul Hansen (1902-2000).


Adrienne Morrison also appeared with Albert Carroll in THE GRAND STREET FOLLIES of 1922 and 1924.
