Cherrill was born on a farm in Carthage, Illinois . She moved to Hollywood and met Charlie Chaplin when he sat next to her at a boxing match. He cast her in City Lights in which she gave a memorable performance, but Chaplin fell out with her during the shooting. She appeared in a few other films subsequently, but gave up her movie career in 1936. Cherrill married four times; her second husband was actor Cary Grant (from 1934 to 1935), and her third was George Child-Villiers, 9th Earl Of Jersey (from 1937 to 1946). Her longest marriage was to Florian Martini , with whom she lived in Santa Barbara, California from 1948 until her death. She had no children. |
