- Fame fades fast. We're trying to identify MGM star 46 featured at the 1949 25th anniversary luncheon. Can you identify her? Or find any errors? Our original version of this video had 16 unidentified stars, but that count has fallen thanks to viewers MissStefanieFR, Jordi Soriano, Dan Briggs, Colette Quinones, InnateStyle Style, Paul Gaff, and further research.

From descriptions of the event, some possible candidates are:

Even though this is the shortest video of the event, it’s the best because it notes stars’ names
Buster Keaton 😂 love it!
I can now confirm that it is Beverly Tyler.
only person still alive as of 2023 is claude jarman jr. we will never see the likes of such talent ever again!
As of January 2024, now. Angela Lansbury (1925-2022), however, remains the longest-lived at 96 years, 11 months, and 25 days.
46 is Beverly Tyler. It took me ages to work it out and it’s a million percent Beverly.
I don't think she was under contract to Metro in 1949. Her final film for the studio was The Beginning or the End in 1947.
@@eblackadder3She was still under contract. It’s Beverly. Her face is clear in the large photograph available online.
This is the edited version of the luncheon footage too, which cuts at Wallace Beery and after Alexis Smith. Dean Stockwell, Spring Byington, Gladys Cooper are all missing. I've struggled for years to identify the woman you have spotted. On the panoramic photo you have bought I know she's facing forward.
Lewis Stone is also missing, he was sitting next to Dean Stockwell.
I don't see Vera Ellen. That is strange. At the time of this luncheon, Vera Ellen was one of MGM's biggest dancing stars. She had been starring with Gene Kelly in On the Town and with Fred Astaire in Three Little Words at the time of this luncheon. Was she not invited? And what was Alexis Smith doing there? As far as I know, she was never under studio contract to MGM. She was a Warner Brothers workhorse. Also I don't see Cyd Charisse.
Nancy Walker???
What's the music title?
It's arranged in alphabetical order, and other videos show Robert Young on her other side, so her last name should be alphabetically between Williams and Young. Or Williams or Young. 🤔 However, after looking at photos - she looks like Mary Astor, to me.
I thinks it's Mary Astor, as well. Though they're seated, by and large, alphabetically, Fred Astaire is seated next to Judy Garland, so there was at least one exception, and there could have possibly been others.
It’s mostly in alphabetical order except a few.
I just bought a copy of a panoramic photograph taken of the entire event that should include the mystery #46 facing towards the camera.
I'll scan it and use AI to upscale it so we can see what she looked like facing forward, hopefully will help.
It’s Beverly Tyler.
I just sent an email with a scan of a photo taken at the event. Should be in your Gmail. I hope it helps!
Great work! We've posted it under our Community tab. Maybe someone will recognize her.
Could it be Ruth Hussey?
It’s Beverly Tyler
@@bobbymaesteg I've never heard of her
She was a supporting MGM player @@ruthbashford3176
