Her fortunes changed when, in May 1943, Life magazine featured her as its cover girl in a checked blouse and matching parasol. Kirk Douglas, by then preparing for war service in the US Navy, saw the magazine and exclaimed to his sceptical room-mates: “Hey, I know that girl! And you know what else? I’m going to marry her.” The couple wed six months later.
