Violet Heming 1920

"Violet Heming was born as Mabel Violet Heming in England of an old theatrical family and could trace her ancestry back to John Heminge who was Shakespeare's partner and wrote the preface to the First Folio. She came to the United States as a child and was on stage at the age of twelve years old. Her first part was that of Wendy in "Peter Pan" in Charles Frohman's road company. Violet went on to created the role of Rebecca in "Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm."

Violet acted in almost every arena available, she starred on Broadway in many famous plays (even for George M. Cohan), she starred a few silent films including Everywoman in 1919, a few sound films, she toured the country starring in various plays, she acted on the radio and in her later years even starred on television on two soap operas.

Violet was married to Frank Grant Mills, a stage actor that worked as Frank Morgan (not Frank Morgan of Wizard of Oz fame and finally settled on the stage name of Grant Mills. They were married in Violet's home country of England in 1920. Violet and Grant divorced sometime in the 1930's (still trying to find proof of their divorce.) Violet married a second time to Judge Bennett Champ Clark of the United States Court of Appeals. Clark was a friend of President Truman, and
President Truman was best man in their marriage."
