It was while visiting at the Beverly Hills Hotel, near Hollywood, Calif., that Ann May was discovered and claimed for pictures. Jerome Storm, then directing Charles Ray, engaged her for Ninon, Parisienne in "Paris Green," She was pronounced a find because of her volatile personality and talent for expression, and was engaged for "Peaceful Valley" with Charles Ray. Cecil B. DeMille then engaged her for his greatest 1929 production. Miss May was born in Cincinnati, where she studied dramatic art at the Schuster-Martin School. She is of the Latin beauty type, with black curly hair and sparkling black eyes, is five feet two and a half inches high and weighs a hundred and three pounds.
