Happy Birthday, Nelson Eddy!

On June 29th, the 122nd anniversary of Nelson Eddy’s birth, some excerpts from an article in Progress Magazine, March 1937. “I want to live a good life gracefully, a life as nearly as possible in harmony with the universe, with life, with the Creator. I want to help others do the same. I want to seek and welcome the truth, no matter through whom it comes or how many times I am compelled to lay aside preconceived opinions. I want to do what good I can as I go along. I want to bring cheer, comfort or inspiration to someone every day. I want to find my own soul and fulfill my own destiny by using the capabilities that I find within myself.”

1938 Louella Parsons' published blurb: "Jeanette MacDonald and Gene Raymond are laughing at those rifting rumors. 'I thought they would rumor the stork before they separated us,' Gene said. Not such an amusing quote since photographic evidence shows that Jeanette visibly had a major pregnancy during this year.
