    Lake, Veronica. (1922–1973)
    "Gramercy Ghost" - Signed Program
    Signed program from the American actress of screen and stage, particularly known for her femme fatale roles. She starred in
    Gramercy Ghost
    at the Boston Summer Theatre in summer 1952, and has signed boldly across her photograph on the cover of the program. Light toning
    Lake starred in film noir movies of the the 1940's, where she was known for her long blonde peek-a-boo hairstyle. By the late 1940's, her career had begun to decline, partly because of her alcoholism. By 1951 she had left Paramount Pictures, bankrupt and on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Although she appeared in several summer stock productions in the early 1950's, a career in theatre never took off; she disappeared further into obscurity through the decade.
    From the collection of Paul McMahon, a critic, photographer and artist who worked for more than 13 years touring with Marlene Dietrich as the icon’s stage manager, announcer, dresser, secretary and escort, and later spent 25 years as an arts and entertainment reviewer and photographer with Gay Community News, Esplanade, Tommy’s Connection, The Mirror, Bay Windows and other publications.
