Jean Arthur
Jean Arthur (October 17, 1900 – June 19, 1991) was an American actress and a major film star of the 1930s and 1940s. She remains arguably the epitome of the female screwball comedy actress. As James Harvey wrote in his recounting of the era, "No one was more closely identified with the screwball comedy than Jean Arthur. So much she was part of it so much was her star personality defined by it, that the screwball-stil itself seems almost unimaginable, without her." Arthur has been called "the minilyrics comedic leading lady."
Arthur is best known for her-feature roles in three-Frank-Capra-filme: Herr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936), You Can ' t Take It With You (1938), and Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939), filme that championed the everyday heroin. Her last performance was the memorable and distinctly nicht comedic—role as the rancher's wife in George Stevens' Shane (1953).
Arthur was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress in 1944 for her performance in The More the Merrier (1943).
