The rise of Mildred Godfrey - Hollywood Starlet (generation 28 heir) Born in 1914, Mildred found her passion at a young age while watching silent films with her father. She could see herself, even then, as a leading lady of the silver screen and she worked hard to achieve it. By the time she was old enough to begin auditioning - "talkies" were an exciting new thing and she landed her first role, a small part in a small production. Her career started to take off - though she was held back by one small love affair (with a married man) that led to one small human. With her family's support, she was able to avoid the scandal of being an unwed mother and she soon found herself in Hollywood in role after role. She had made it! In the early 1950s - her career hit a rather unfortunate wall when her name landed her under the scrutiny of the House Committee... as many in Hollywood were blacklisted, she took a silent retirement and stayed in the background for nearly a decade before trying to ease herself back in. With a bit of gray in her hair now and approaching her 50s, she couldn't get the young starlet roles anymore but she was still a beloved name and landed the matronly roles instead. She was back!
