Jimmy Starr (1902 - 1990) is best known as a Hollywood columnist, though he was also a writer and actor, known for The Corpse Came C.O.D. (1947), A Night for Crime (1943) and Pink Pajamas (1929). RKO Radio Pictures was a motion picture production and distribution company. The company was originally established in 1929 as Radio Pictures during the founding of Radio-Keith-Orpheum Corporation. In 1931 the company merged with Path , and was renamed RKO Radio Pictures in 1932. Some of the RKO films from 1932 Mr. Starr may have enjoyed include such popular productions as What Price Hollywood directed by George Cukor starring Constance Bennett and Lowell Sherman and Westward Passage starring Ann Harding, Laurence Olivier, and Zasu Pitts.
