Shirley Temple Black (1928–2014) RIP. You gave us great joy with your wonderful films. A few were lensed in Chatsworth:
Wee Willie Winkie (1937) - Shirley Temple, Victor McLaglen, C. Aubrey Smith (Iverson Ranch) 20th Century Fox

She was an American icon that went from a child star during the 1930s to a US Ambassador in the 1960s. FDR once said of the Depression-era cutie, "As long as our country has Shirley Temple, we will be all right."
One of my all-time favorite Shirley Temple films is John Ford's "Wee Willie Winkie" (1937) which was filmed at the Iverson Ranch in Chatsworth.
