Norma Varden
The daughter of a retired sea captain and his much-younger wife, actress Norma Varden was born and raised in turn-of-the-century London. A piano prodigy, she studied in Paris and appeared in concert in England during her teenage years. Acting, however, became her career of choice, studying at the Guildhall School of Music. She took her very first stage bow in a production of Peter Pan. In the adult role of Mrs. Darling, she was actually younger than the actors playing her children. In years to come, Norma would play a number of mature, lady-like roles that were much older than she was. She performed Shakespeare in repertory and was at first cast in dramatic plays such as The Wandering Jew (1920-her West End debut) and Hamlet (1925) as the Player Queen. In various acting companies, she eventually found a flair for comedy and became the resident character comedienne for the famous Aldwych Theatre farce-ers from 1929 to 1933 à la Marx Bros. foil Margaret Dumont. Finding success there in the comedies A Night Like This and Turkey Time, she later recreated both roles on British film a couple of years later. She went on to prove herself a minor but avid scene-stealer in such movies as Evergreen (1934), The Iron Duke (1934), Stormy Weather (1935) and East Meets West (1936), quickly finding an amusing niche as a haughty society maven. She played both benevolent and supercilious with equal ease -- her height (5'7-1/2"), elongated oval face, vacant manner, plummy voice and slightly drowsy eyes adding immensely to the look and amusement of her characters. In the early 1940s, the veteran actress visited California, accompanied by her ailing, widowed mother, for a take on the warmer climate and decided to permanently settle. Again, she found herself in demand as a now silvery-haired duchess, queen or Lady something, albeit in less meaty, sometimes even unbilled parts. Although she could dress down when called upon as a bar maid, nurse and landlady, she usually was asked to provide the requisite atmosphere for glossy, opulent settings. Her more noticeable roles came as lecherous Robert Benchley's wealthy, put-upon wife in The Major and the Minor (1942); the vile Lady Abbott in Forever Amber (1947); the giddy socialite nearly strangled by Robert Walker in Hitchcock's classic Strangers on a Train (1951); the impressively bejeweled wife of Charles Coburn, whom Marilyn Monroe fawns over in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953); and the Von Trapp housekeeper Frau Schmidt in The Sound of Music (1965). Norma became a steadfast radio and TV comedy foil during the 40s, 50s and 60s, often at the mercy of a Lucille Ball or Jack Benny. Her longest radio part was as Basil Rathbone's housekeeper on his Sherlock Holmes radio series. On TV, she appeared in such shows as Mister Ed (1961), The Beverly Hillbillies (1962), Bewitched (1964) and Batman (1966) She had recurring roles as Betty Hutton's aunt on The Betty Hutton Show (1959) and as Shirley Booth's neighbor on Hazel (1961). Never married, Norma's mother passed away in 1969, and the actress retired shortly after. She died of heart failure in 1989, a day before her 91st birthday.

Norman Alden
Born Norman Adelberg in 1924, he served in the Army during World War II. At the end of the conflict he had the opportunity to benefit from the GI Bill program meant to help returning soldiers to start or resume studying. That is how, while attending Texas Christian University, he discovered on the boards of on-campus theater that he had a talent for acting. This was the beginning of a long, long career. Though most of the time in small or even bit parts, Alden, worked for such big names as Howard Hawks, Jerry Lewis, Walt Disney, Woody Allen and Tim Burton. He might have become a major star himself after Richard C. Sarafian chose him for the title role of Andy (1965). The director must have been very pleased with Alden for, as Andy Chadakis - the retarded son of elderly Greek immigrants - he showed remarkable acting ability . Unfortunately, the film was little seen and the gifted actor landed no other parts of such importance and quality afterward.

Norman Astwood was born in the British West Indies and was educated at Wolmer's. He was a Jamaican who grew up in Kingston, Jamaica, and in 1912, he and his family was one of millions who immigrated to America through the legendary Ellis Island. Norman was furthered educated at the City College in New York. When the first world war broke out Norman enlisted and served as an aviator in the British Army, being commissioned as Leuitantant. In the 1920s, Norman returned to the United States after the war and launched his career as an actor, singer, and overall entertainer on stage, radio, and later screen. Norman earned his first success in one of the first popular black Broadway musical comedies "Blackbirds of 1926." In 1929, Norman went to England with the Lew Leslie Blackbirds revue which had a highly successful run in London. Singing was another one of Norman's talents, he sung at various popular venues and on the radio in the 1930s, awing audiences with his dynamic and heartfelt singing. In 1935, Norman appeared as master of ceremonies in the Universal film short "Harlem Bound" and he sung the emotional "Machinery." Norman attained screen success as an actor (when he was in his late 30's) in race films a.k.a Black Cinema films, "Paradise In Harlem," "Sunday Sinners" and "Murder on Lenox Avenue": these were the best films of the genre partly because of Norman's dominating presence and talent. Race films were the only films Norman could display his talent since he was too light and not the Stepin Fetchit type to appear in Hollywood films. In only three films Norman showed more acting skills then most in numerous films; his naturalness, convincingness, great knack for timing, and powerful presence and strong voice brought his characters alive always giving a pleasing, complimentary performance. Norman usually portrayed tough, intimidating, macho types and played them perfectly. He played men you love to hate but he added charm, magnetic appeal, and his rugged good looks that drew audiences to him and made him attractive. He was the Clark Gable of race films. To add to his image he had a distinct accented voice that he became very known for. When not acting, throughout the 1930s and 1940s, Norman entertained at various premier nightclubs and theaters like the famed Apollo theater. In World War II, Norman served as a captain in the U.S. Army and he still performed during the war but retired from show business before the war ended.
