It is Gloria DeHaven. I had seen that picture attributed to Francis Bavier years ago, a friend sent it to me...but after some research on the "internets" I see that this picture is wrongly attributed. I stand corrected.

Life is a trip, isn't it?

The images in my mind of Frances Bavier were always of the frumpy, matronly type.

Of course I know people age, but it's still kind of surreal.
