Paulette Goddard (June 3, 1910 – April 23, 1990) was an Oscar-nominated American actress. A former child fashion model and Ziegfeld Girl, she was a major star of the Paramount Studio in the 1940s. Her exceptional beauty and fame led to several marriages to notable men, including Charlie Chaplin, Burgess Meredith, and Erich Maria Remarque, although she never had any children.

Early life and career

---

Paulette Goddard's birth name is believed to have been Pauline Marion Levy; she was an only child, born in Whitestone Landing, Queens, Long Island, New York to a Jewish father and a Protestant mother.

She became a fashion model as a teenager, and a member of the Ziegfeld Follies at the age of 13 or 14 in 1924. She attended Washington Irving High School in Manhattan at the same time as Claire Wemlinger, who would become acclaimed Oscar-winning actress Claire Trevor. Trevor related that the boys were gaga over Pauline and that Goddard was a year older (!) than she, but both women appear to have actually been born the same year (1910).
