Barbara Dean



In 1921 Barbara Dean joined the cast of the Ziegfeld Follies. Barbara had a small role in the 1921 film "Forever". She received afterwards other movie offers, but turned them all down. The beautiful blonde often posed nude for photographer Alfred Cheney Johnston. He said she was "one of the loveliest creatures I have ever photographed."
