I had never heard of her before. I'll have to check out her films. How sad about her awful marriage to Friedrich Mandl, but a blessing in all she was able to learn that helped influence her desire to help the war effort! She certainly contributed alot! I too wonder how much her invention would have helped with the war if the U.S. government would have utilized it. You sure had me captivated in learning her story! :) Thanks as well for the opportunity of this giveaway!!! ~Alison Boss<br /><br />nj(dot)bossman(at)gmail(dot)com<br /><br />Alison Bosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04302948293605454971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271375082145370896.post-45866248563833453232018-02-24T01:14:18.282-05:002018-02-24T01:14:18.282-05:00What a fascinating life she led!

As your title said she was more than a pretty face,in fact I had heard she was prouder of her scientific accomplishments than her career as a glamour girl. I think she'd would have been happy to know that when my niece was in high school Hedy's picture and bio was in one of her Science books.

She was a real beauty with brains. I remember seeing her in so many wonderful movies as a young girl. She was glamorous and sultry. I saw Samson and Delilah and remember it well. I also saw Dishonored Lady and I vaguely remember Ziegfield Girl, but I was only 5 the summer mother took us to the movies in 1941 to see it. Thanks for a very interesting post. Martha W.
