Colleen Moore in Why Be Good? (1929)
The Sphere, England, November 29, 1920
“When I first went there, it was for an audition in 1935. I was then eighteen years old. So it has to have been before May 6th, 1935. So I would say it was like March. I seem to remember March for some reason…I heard about a year later from Frank Churchill, the musical director, that Walt said after I finished, he said, ‘She’s the first one we’ve tried, but I feel certain that this is our Snow White. But I’m not going to go with this until we really find out definitely.’ He said, ‘We’re going to try out as many more as we can.’ I was the first one.”
