Janet_Gaynor

 

Janet Gaynor, stage name of Laura Gainer, She was born in Philadelphia on 06 October 1906.
In 1929 is the first actress to win an Academy Award for his performance in three films: 7th Heaven (1927), Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans (1927) and Street Angel (1928). It is the only actress in movie history to have won an oscar for his participation and performance in three different movies at the same time.
Known to the general public due to some western films, the actress claims for his "anti-vamp" mainly due to the sweetness of the lineaments of her face, in sharp contrast to women more in vogue at the time. Suffice it to say that the face that Walt Disney conceived in the years ' 30 to interpret the figure of snow white was inspired by that of Janet.
The Gaynor is one of the few actresses of the ' 20 's 30 that manages to make switching between silent and sound successfully, thanks largely to the very sweet and musical voice that is associated with female characters often delicate and infantile. The success was not long in arriving here too and won again the Academy Award for best actress in A Star Is Born (1937).
Janet retires from public life in 1938, leaving the scene at the age of 32 years.
He died in 1984 in Palm Spring, in California.
