Silent Film Star Nita Naldi

My Great Uncle Frank had a daughter named Nita (b. 1928). Although she died a few years ago, I found out through genealogical research that Nita had a sister named Naldi (b. 1930). Naldi died in infancy.

Yesterday, I’m reading a book that mentions a silent film start named Nita Naldi. I had never heard of such a person.

Apparently Great Uncle Frank was quite the Nita Naldi fan!

Anyway, if anyone here is a Nita Naldi fan, I thought this would be an interesting story. Carry on.

You need to talk to Eve.

Yes- Evie, where are you? She knows more about Nita than I do.

There is a chapter on Nita (real name Donna Dooley) in my book Golden Images. But you can save the cash and read about her on the Nita Naldi Web site. She was a bitter, funny, smart lady.

Nita Naldi was the Catherine Zeta-Jones of her time. She was hot!
