Lita Chevret height - How tall is Lita Chevret?

She co-starred (for once) in five two-reel comedies for Mack Sennett and in Sandflow (1937), an obscure Buck Jones western.

She also had a cameo as a chorus girl in Fox's Charlie Chan's Courage (1934), and then came a succession of similar no-name parts as showgirls, secretaries and even an Indian squaw. Lita Chevret briefly attracted newspaper headlines as one of George Raft's romantic conquests, but this was no more lasting than her remaining time in Hollywood.

Then followed another inconsequential comedy, Goldie Gets Along (1933), and a series of loan-outs to other studios.

There was a glimmer of hope for her career with a sixth-billed role as Birdie Klauber in a maudlin Fannie Hurst three-handkerchief tearjerker, Symphony of Six Million (1932).

For the next few years, Lita seemed practically glued to the same company, appearing with Wheeler & Woolsey in The Cuckoos (1930) (as another dusky senorita); Everything's Rosie (1931), an attempt never to be repeated, to providing a solo vehicle for Woolsey; and Girl Crazy (1932), an expensive romp with music by the Gershwins, which also failed to recoup its cost at the box office.

No improvement was the naive and shoddily-made crime drama The Pay-Off (1930). With a succession of her films now deemed palpable commercial failures, Lita found herself again relegated to the doldrums, sliding down the bottom of the cast lists.

A lithe, brunette actress and photographer's model, Lita Chevret began promisingly enough at the very beginning of talking pictures. Her parents, already established in show business, helped along by paying for her dancing tuition. By the age of twenty, she worked as a professional dancer and show girl. Her proficiency as a hoofer (and her looks) secured a contract in Hollywood and a part in the Fox Movietone Follies of 1929 (1929). The following year, she was selected by the Western Association of Motion Picture Advertisers as a WAMPAS Baby Star, a selection of thirteen young hopefuls destined for better things. On this occasion, however, the list ended up not being published, partly because of confusion arising from the transition of silent pictures to sound, partly because of fallout from the Wall Street crash and partly, because of objections raised by independent producers. Poor Lita, consequently, missed out on what would have been valuable publicity.

Still, she managed to sign a three-year contract with RKO, starting off with another uncredited part in the south-of-the-border musical Rio Rita (1929), featuring the comedy duo of Bert Wheeler and Robert Woolsey.
