Check out Jean Harlow (born Harlean Harlow Carpenter; March 3, 1911 – June 7, 1937), the American film actress and sex symbol of the 1930s.
After getting scooped up by director Howard Hughes, Harlow’s big break came in the movie “Hell’s Angels” (1930). Even though her next few films didn’t exactly set the world on fire, she still managed to land a deal with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer in 1932. At MGM, Harlow became a total leading lady, starring in a string of blockbuster hits like ‘Red Dust” (1932), “Dinner at Eight” (1933), “Reckless” (1935), and “Suzy” (1936). She often shared the screen with big names like William Powell, Spencer Tracy, and her frequent co-star Clark Gable, with whom she made six films.
Harlow’s fame quickly eclipsed that of her MGM peers, including Joan Crawford and Norma Shearer. By the late 1930s, she was one of the biggest movie stars on the planet, earning nicknames like the “Blond Bombshell” and the “Platinum Blonde” for her iconic look and her “Laughing Vamp” movie persona.
Tragically, Harlow passed away during the filming of “Saratoga” in 1937 at just 26 years old. The film was finished using doubles and dropped a little over a month after her death. The American Film Institute later ranked her as the 22nd greatest female star of classic Hollywood cinema.
