Description

1 image. Airport arrival, 8 May 1952. Anne Francis (20th Century Fox Star).; Supplementary material reads: "20th Century Fox. Swears off --- when Anne Francis, beautiful blond film star hobbled from an airliner from Haiti at Los Angeles International Airport today, she took a vow she'd never get astride a horse again in her life. She left the plane in crutches because of injuries she sustained in a fall from a horse during a parade in Haiti held in conjunction with the world premiere of her latest 20th Century-Fox picture 'Lydia Bailey'. By a strange coincidence, it was during the filming of this same picture here in Hollywood that her horse stumbled and fell upon her, wrenching her right knee. The accident almost cost her the part which marked her first starring role in films after she was signed from New York TV".
