Description
Swedish born Greta Garbo (1905-1990), like her German counterpart Marlene Dietrich, became a prisoner of fame. At least Garbo emerged from her art filled apartment to walk the streets of New York while Dietrich rarely left her bed in Berlin.
Garbo fans became so besotted with her that they wouldn't even cash checks she had signed.
Greta first garnered attention with "The Saga of Gosta Berling," 1924. She arrived in Hollywood at the tail end of the silent era, with the film's director Mauritz Stiller (1883-1928), knowing not a word of English.
He couldn't adapt and died a few years later, while she became the number 1 enigmatic, super star in MGM's stable of performers.
