A Working Girl
When Eden first arrived in Hollywood, she didn’t jump straight into stardom. First, she got a job working at a bank. She said that her time as a banker was the only job in her early career that didn’t involve Hollywood. Eden had this to say about her experience working at the bank:
“I didn’t know enough… I had no relative in the field, and I didn’t know enough to tell producers that I belonged to Actors Equity and could qualify for membership in the Screen Actors Guild.” After the bank job, she performed as a chorus girl at Ciro’s, a club on L.A.’s Sunset Strip. Her amazing performance got her a contract with 20th Century Fox.
