Not Mary Rogers

Latest comment: 2 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The Telegraph obituary claims Mary Howard was born 'Mary Rogers' and made her film debut in My Weakness (1933). However this appears to be an error in the Telegraph and I have removed it. The actress in My Weakness was Mary Rogers (1913-1989), the daughter of Will Rogers, who assumed the name Mary Howard early in her career, per contemporary (e.g. Film Daily Jul 21 1933, Motion Picture magazine, Screenland) and modern sources.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4] Mary Howard de Liagre was not born "Mary Rogers", as she was a sister of Meredith Howard Harless and daughter of Samuel J. and Florence (Wilson) Howard.^[5]^[6] This Howard/Rogers confusion may have been perpetuated by other sources, reliable or not, like the notoriously unreliable IMDB and other databases. --Animalparty!
