[QUOTE="ClassyCo, post: 306264, member: 7"] [JUSTIFY]I forgot a tidbit of trivia concerning Cleo Moore. There seems to have been some inconsistency over her year of birth, which isn't uncommon for an era when actresses often fibbed about their age, whether adding or shaving off years to comply with the norm and get jobs. Moore's obituary says that she was born in 1928, although she claims to have graduated from high school in 1941. Although it was common for teenagers to graduate high school earlier back then, it is unlikely that Moore graduated when she was 13 years old. Her gravestone lists she was born in 1929, while some biographies list 1923 or 1924 as a more accurate year of birth.
