“It seems to be true that I use blue a good deal in the things that I wear and in those that I choose to have about me, but I do not know exactly why. I have heard the theory that everyone has his color, with which he is entirely in harmony, but the idea does not appeal to me.” – Jewel Carmen in 1918.
“Jewell Carmen, who deserted Portland a couple of years ago to answer the call to California’s moving pictures studios,…began with Douglas Fairbanks as an extra girl and in no time at all was playing real parts. From Triangle she went to the Fox company…Miss Carmen is 19 years old and prior to the destruction of the family home by fire lived with her parents in Montavilla.” — The Oregon Daily Journal in 1917
