This piece comes from the estate of Carmen Dirigo.Carmen was a Hollywood hair stylist who worked on many of the top stars during the Golden Age of Hollywood, including Gary Cooper, Fredric March, Orson Welles, Gracie Allen, Frances Dee, Ronald Colman, W.C. Fields, Mae West, Gary Grant, Merle Oberon(Wuthering Heights), Joan Fontaine, Paulette Goddard, and Joan Bennett (Carmen's maid of honor in 1940)etc. She began as a dancer and showgirl in the Hollywood Box Revue in the 1920s. Carmen performed in numerous theatrical productions including "No, No Nanette" for Carter DeHaven and Oliver Morosco, theatrical producer, in "The Morning After". She also performed at the Pantages and Egyptian Theatres in Hollywood. Carmen became a hair dresser in the 1930s doing men's wigs and went from t doing hundreds of films, two including two Oscar winning movies, Stagecoach and Wuthering Heights. She ended up her career in television in the early 1960's. She was a resident of Van Nuys /North Hollywood and was an avid equestrian rider on 'Silver Shadow'. She helped found the Corral 17 Chapter of Equestrian Trails which did much fine work for horse trails. She worked with Ronald Reagan, Dick Powell, Yvonne DeCarlo as participants. Her mother, Lily, worked at the Carl Laemmle Studios (Universal) in the early 20's.

She worked on Greta Garbo, Loretta Young, Priscilla Dean, Una Merkel and many others in the silents and on into the talkies until 1957 with 'Around the World in 80 Days'.
