Lili Damita - Fourth of 4 postings

Lili retired from the screen after her 1935 marriage. As mentioned in the previous post the marriage with Errol fell apart in 1942, but they did have a son, Sean, to whom Lili was extremely devoted. Sean did some acting, then found his true calling as a photojournalist at the height of the Vietnam war. He disappeared in Cambodia in April 1970 while covering the war for Time and Life magazines. Lili spent tremendous time and money trying to locate him, but to no avail. He was declared legally dead in 1984. Lili died in West Palm Beach, FL in 1994, a few months shy of her 90th birthday. The pictures in this post show her during the happy times.
