I was extremely honored to meet MGM actress and former Big Spring resident, Jean Porter. She starred with Roy Rogers and Dale Evans in one of their Westerns and was a pin-up girl during WWII. She has had an incredible life and I cannot sum her up in a small paragraph. She and her husband Edward Dmytryk owned this estate located in Bel-Aire California. It had formerly belonged to Clark Gable and Carol Lumbard. Jean was married from 1948-1999 to film director and writer Edward Dmytryk, who was one of the Hollywood Ten, the most prominent blacklisted group in the film industry during the McCarthy-era.
