“Coming to Hollywood was a complete surprise to me. I had a phone call in Basle, Switzerland and things moved so fast that in seven days I was on a plane for my first trip to the United States. I hate flying but…When I arrived here I asked how I happened to be chosen and it was very nice what they told me. They said they saw some film of me and liked my face because it showed an abundance of poise and lack of pose.” — Elisabeth Mueller
