Timeline

1933

Graduated from Pembroke College in Brown University in 1933.

1937

A graduate of the University of Michigan School of Drama, Ruth Hussey's first show-business job was as a fashion commentator on a local radio station. She journeyed to New York City, where she was signed as a model by the world-famous Powers agency. She obtained some stage roles with touring companies and was noticed by MGM, which signed her and with whom she made her film debut in 1937. She quickly became a leading lady in MGM's "B" unit, usually playing sophisticated, worldly roles.

1938

Appeared two times (both in minor roles) in Norma Shearer films: the uncredited role of the Duchess De Polignac in Marie Antoinette (1938), and as Miss Watts (Mr. Haines' secretary) in The Women (1939).

1939

She appeared in two films that have been selected for the National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically or aesthetically" significant: The Women (1939) and The Philadelphia Story (1940).

1964

She was a Republican who supported Barry Goldwater in 1964.

1980

Although an "off again on again" Democrat, she did vote for Republican Ronald Reagan during the 1980 and 1984 presidential election due in part that she was strongly dissatisfied with the presidency of the Democratic Jimmy Carter. She voted for him in 1976 and found out quickly that he "wasn't up to the job" as she'd believed.

2003
