Norma Shearer's classic beauty and unmatched profile enabled accomplished photographer George Hurrell to work magic with his subject. His dramatic images enabled millions of filmgoers to study this very special actress not just on the screen, but close-up via glossies handed out by MGM, and in dozens of monthly publications devoted to film stars.
