Ann Blyth
It was five days after wrapping this major film that Ann Blyth experienced an horrific even. Her mother took Ann and some friends up to the Lake Arrowhead area in the San Bernardino Mountains to have a few daysโ holiday in the snow in April 1945. Ann was injured in a toboggan accident. โShe was sailing down the hard-packed icy hillside like snow birds, then there was a crash and I fell on my back with a sickening thud.โ She was 16 years old.
