1 | You have to forget all that silly nonsense you were taught in pictures. I mean about the importance of the star, the glamour stuff and all that. On a live TV show, everybody works together on the same level. You can learn more about acting in five minutes of television than you can during an entire picture. |
2 | I'm not the type to play roles which win Academy Awards. I can't see myself in a big historical picture or in a difficult emotional role. |

1 | After her first divorce, she was known to have been seen around town with Nicky Hilton, Vic Damone, Robert Wagner and Frank Sinatra. |
2 | Mona was chosen "Miss Subway" on May 1, 1941. Miss Subway was a promotion run by John Robert Powers. Woman who were selected, only reigned for a month at a time. The promotion was a method Powers used to promote his modeling agency and the New York Subway System. |
3 | Was in a relationship with Bing Crosby after the death of his wife Dixie Lee. They might have married but both were Catholic, and she was divorced. |
4 | Her second husband (since June of 1961), Jack Ellis, was a Los Angeles businessman. He officially adopted Mona's daughter from an earlier marriage who entered show business as Monie Ellis. |
5 | Her hobbies include portrait and landscape painting. |
6 | First husband was Pat Nerney, a wealthy Hollywood auto dealer. They had a daughter, Mona, Jr., called Monie, in 1947. |
7 | Howard Hughes discovered her and gave her a two-year contract after seeing one of her photographs on a magazine cover. Frustrated that she was not cast in anything, Paramount wound up buying out her contract from Hughes, having never done a bit of work for the eccentric mogul. She was cast in Angel Face (1953), an RKO/Howard Hughes production. |
8 | To help her brother enter Yale, Mona took it upon herself to find modeling work and became a successful teenage cover girl for John Robert Powers. She also became one of the "Miss Subway" girls in New York. |
9 | Of English, Irish and French heritage. Her father, Stuart Freeman, was a contractor. |
10 | The 18-year-old's first role was as Barbara Stanwyck's teen stepdaughter in Billy Wilder's Double Indemnity (1944) but she photographed so young, she was replaced by Jean Heather. She still made her debut in the movie, however, when she was instead handed a one-line bit part as Edward G. Robinson's secretary. She was also cast to play Elizabeth Taylor's older sister in National Velvet (1944) but once again was replaced (by Angela Lansbury) because she did not look old enough. In truth, Mona was six years Taylor's senior. |
11 | Perenially young bobbysoxer of post-war Paramount, she played teens long after she outgrew the roles, and it later stifled her adult career. |
12 | Mother of actress Monie Ellis. |
