HelpRe: Old Hollywood Insp. CAF (Part 1)
in reply to a message by Antique_Cherub
Born in 1914, Alta Rose was the oldest child of a German immigrant family in Pennsylvania. Although she had yet to dye her hair platinum, she was still striking and had always possessed that doe-like gaze, which later become her trademark. Before fame she worked at textile factory, using her meager paycheck to support her parents. It was on a trip to New York to visit her aunt that she was spotted, soon finding work as a model, and eventually, an actress. Her first big role came in 1935, when she starred in "The Unloving Heart". Though her name at birth was Rosa Hildegard Rosenbaum, the studios decided to give her something more star-worthy.

___
Soon after, Alta Rose became a household name, starring box-office hit after hit. One of her most memorable roles would be as the seductive Madame Veruschka in the classic noir film "As the Night Fades". In 1940 at age twenty-six, she was married to fellow actor, Leslie Moore, who she met on the set of her 1939 romance film, "Don't Play With My Heart, O Bettina!". He was eight years her senior. They were the perfect Hollywood couple, her with her perfect blonde curls and willowy figure, him with his dark hair, blue eyes, and smoky baritone. Just seven months after their marriage, Rosa would give birth to a baby girl, much to the tabloids shock. Only three years later, she would file for a divorce. The court proceedings were splashed across the news, and filled with every sordid detail, from the mistresses to the drugs and Leslie's supposed alcoholism. Despite it all, she would win full custody of her child.

Despite Roz playing a younger version of her mother's character in "Betty", she would eventually shun the fast-paced and, in her own words, "shallow" lifestyle of Hollywood. Roz became a well-respected OB/GYN in New York, and married a pediatrician. After years of resentment between the two, Rosa and Roz rekindled their relationship via the birth of Roz's first child. Now, they maintain a friendship, and spend the holidays together.
