Who is this 40s movie star?

My dad (who's 60) took one look at this photo of yours and said that it sure looked a lot like a young Ann Sheridan with little to no make-up. He said that she was not a raving beauty but "a good looker". Check out her photos at: The Ann Sheridan Picture Gallery http://www.geocities.com/proxima3a/

In fact, in this photo they may be wearing the same earrings (hard to tell): http://www.geocities.com/proxima3c/Pictures/Close_...

P.S.--My dad also said that it is definitely not Merle Oberon, as another responder suggested.

I'm not sure, but I have a bunch of very intelligent movie buffs working on your case! (Really!)

Update: Best guess I've heard so far is Viveca Lindfors. She was born in 1920, which would have made her in her 20s in the 1940s.

Why do you think she's a 40s movie star?

It's Jacqueline du Pre.
