In The Beginning…

She was born Dorothy Hackett McGuire on June 14, 1916 in Omaha, Nebraska. McGuire was the only child of Isabelle Flaherty McGuire and Thomas Johnson McGuire.

She made her stage debut at age 13 at the local community playhouse in Barrie’s A Kiss for Cinderella.

Amazingly, her co-star of that stage play was fellow Nebraskan Henry Fonda.

Fonda was making a return visit to his home town after becoming a success on Broadway.

They happened to be in this production together and both went on to be big stars.

She was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress for Gentleman’s Agreement (1947).

Won the National Board of Review Award for Best Actress for Friendly Persuasion (1956).
