Clara Bow
Named for the famous "IT" girl, the Bow room shows the
femininity of ruffled pillows and curtains, while
acknowledging the masculinity of strong accent colors on
the walls and bedspread, it is favored by those who like
the "Old Fashioned Look" of the decor used by many of
our ancestors. Early American antiques and a fresh
flowers are features of the room. The colors are antique
rose, soft mauve and deep wines and greens. Slip into
the cozy bathrobes provided in the armoire and sip your
wine while watching TV or reading.

Short Bio
|
The "jazz baby" personified,
Clara Bow
(1906-1965) became one of Hollywood's brightest
lights of the '20s. Saucy and pert, Clara was dubbed
'The "It" Girl' by
Elinor Glyn
and chosen to star in the film version of Ms. Glyn's
famous novel. While nothing more than good old sex
appeal, "It" symbolized the tremendous progress
women were making in society, and leading the way
was Clara Bow. |
Success followed success, with Clara's popularity
growing from such films as
Mantrap,
Kid Boots,
Dancing Mothers,
and
Wings.
But it was 1927's grand-slam smash
It
which made Clara Bow Paramount's number 1 star, and
the most famous name in Hollywood.
Contrary to
popular belief,
Clara Bow successfully made
the transition to talkies with such roles as
Call Her Savage
and
Hoopla.
She retired from films in 1933 to become a full-time wife and later,
full-time
mother to two sons, Tony and George.
