Face Lifted
Even The Face herself was amazed. After beautiful and shrewd Anita Colby announced last week that she planned to quit as the $500-a-week maid-of-all-work to Moviemaker David Selznick, she got a score of job offers. They came from other producers in Hollywood, four advertising agencies, three cosmetics companies, two model agencies and assorted department stores, book publishers, etc.
She finally settled for two new jobs—production assistant to Paramount's Henry Ginsberg, and columnist for King Features. Together, they would pay her about $100,000 a year. When she had 'made up her mind, The Face, 32, telephoned the home folks in New York. Said she: "Hey, shake hands with the richest kid in town."
