The Writing King Your Ethical Ghostwriter. Your Story, Done Right.

Actor: Jean Simmons

Jean Simmons was nominated for Hamlet at nineteen, playing Ophelia opposite Olivier, and again for The Happy Ending twenty years later.

Spartacus, Guys and Dolls and Elmer Gantry fill out the Hollywood period, and she does her own singing in Guys and Dolls opposite Brando.

She was under contract to Howard Hughes for a period and sued to get out of it, which was a considerable risk at the time. Great Expectations gives her the earliest performance worth seeking.
