Early on life [edit]

Reed was born Donna Belle Mullenger on a farm near Denison, Iowa, the daughter of Hazel Jane (née Shives) and William Richard Mullenger.[one] The eldest of five children, she was raised as a Methodist.[ii] In 1936, while she was a sophomore at Denison (Iowa) Loftier Schoolhouse, her chemistry instructor Edward Tompkins gave her the book How to Win Friends and Influence People. The book is said to have greatly influenced her life. Upon reading it she won the pb in the school play, was voted Campus Queen and was in the top ten of the 1938 graduating class. Tompkins went on to work on the Manhattan Project.[three]

Subsequently graduating from Denison Loftier School, Reed planned to become a teacher but was unable to pay for college. She decided to move to California to attend Los Angeles City College on the communication of her aunt.

In 1941 after signing with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Reed made her film debut in The Go-Abroad reverse Robert Sterling; she was billed as Donna Adams.

MGM before long inverse her name to Donna Reed, as at that place was anti-German feeling during World War II.[7] "A studio publicist hung the proper noun on me, and I never did like it", Reed once said. "I hear 'Donna Reed' and I remember of a tall, chic, austere blonde that isn't me. 'Donna Reed' – it has a cold, forbidding sound."[8]

Reed had a supporting part in Shadow of the Thin Man (1941) and in Wallace Beery's The Bugle Sounds (1942). Like many starlets at MGM, she played opposite Mickey Rooney in an Andy Hardy movie, in her case the hugely pop The Courting of Andy Hardy (1942).

Reed helped provide the story but did not announced in the final film.[11] Reed was top billed in a romantic comedy Faithful in My Fashion (1946) with Tom Drake which lost coin.

MGM lent her to RKO Pictures for the function of Mary Bailey in Frank Capra's Information technology's a Wonderful Life. The motion picture has since been named as one of the 100 best American films always made by the American Film Institute and is regularly aired on television during the Christmas season.[12] Reed later said it was "the nigh difficult flick I e'er did. No manager ever demanded as much of me."[8]

Dorsum at MGM she appeared in Green Dolphin Street (1947) with Lana Turner and Van Heflin, a big hit.

Reed was borrowed by Paramount to make ii films with Alan Ladd, Across Glory (1948), where she replaced Joan Caulfield at the last moment,[13] and Chicago Deadline (1949).[14] In 1949 she expressed a want for meliorate roles.[xv]

Reed played the part of Alma "Lorene" Burke, girlfriend of Montgomery Clift'southward grapheme, in the World State of war II drama From Here to Eternity (1953). The role earned Reed an Academy Honor for Best Supporting Actress for 1953.[17]

The qualities of her parts did not seem to ameliorate: she was the love interest in The Caddy (1953) with Martin and Lewis at Paramount; Gun Fury (1953) with Rock Hudson; Three Hours to Kill (1954) with Dana Andrews; and They Rode W (1954) with Robert Francis. Reed returned to MGM to human activity in The Concluding Time I Saw Paris (1954).

The Donna Reed Prove [edit]

From 1958 to 1966, Reed starred in The Donna Reed Show, a television serial produced by her so-hubby, Tony Owen. The show featured her every bit Donna Stone, the wife of pediatrician Alex Stone (Carl Betz) and mother of Jeff (Paul Petersen) and Mary Stone (Shelley Fabares). Reed was attracted to the idea of being in a comedy, something with which she did not accept much experience. She also liked playing a wife.[20]

The show ran for 8 seasons on ABC.[21] Reed won a Golden World Honor and earned four Emmy Award nominations for her work on the series.

Reed described her bear witness as "[...] a realistic movie of small-town life with an oftentimes humorous twist. Our plots revolve around the near important thing in America—a loving family." In the testify, Reed'south character, Donna Stone, is a loving mother and wife, just besides a potent, smart woman with feelings and a sense of sense of humour.[22]

But some feminists criticized the show, asserting that it promoted submissiveness among housewives. In a 1979 interview, Reed, who had raised iv children, responded, "I played a strong woman who could manage her family. That was offensive to a lot of people."[23]

In a 1984 tv set interview, Reed said of her bear witness, "I felt that I was making, for women, a statement. This mother was not stupid. She wasn't domineering, but she was bright and I thought rather forward-thinking, happily married."[24]

In a 2008 interview, Paul Petersen, who portrayed her son Jeff Stone in the series, besides shared his opinions about the product's significance:

That's what the show was really almost, the importance of family unit. That's where life's lessons are transmitted, generation to generation. There's a certain way in which these are transmitted, with love and amore...[The Donna Reed Show] depicts a better time and place. Information technology has a sort of level of intelligence and professionalism that is sadly lacking in current entertainment products. The messages it sent out were positive and uplifting. The folks you saw were likable, the family unit was fun, the situations were familiar to people. It provided 22-and-a-one-half-minutes of moral pedagogy and communication on how to bargain with the footling dilemmas of life.[25]

Later on career [edit]

When The Donna Reed Show ended its run in 1966, Reed took time off from acting to concentrate on raising her children and engaging in political activism.[26] She returned to interim in the late '70s, appearing in the TV movies The Best Place to Be (1979) and Deadly Lessons (1983) and a invitee stint on The Love Gunkhole.[27]

In the 1984–85 season of the goggle box series Dallas, Reed replaced Barbara Bel Geddes equally Miss Ellie Ewing. Of the show, Reed explained in a 1984 interview,

1 of the chief reasons Dallas is successful is the family unit. They all stick together. They may squabble, merely they pull for 1 another and alive under i roof, which is actually tribal, and information technology'due south non true anymore! And I recollect deep downwardly, everyone misses that.[24]

When Bel Geddes agreed to return to the function for the 1985–86 season, Reed was abruptly fired.[28] Reed failed in attempts to stop the 1985–86 season from going into production while she tried to get reinstated in the part of Miss Ellie.[28] She sued for alienation of contract, later settling out of court for over $one 1000000.[29]

In 1967, Reed became a peace activist and co-chaired the anti-war advocacy group, Another Mother for Peace. The group's slogan was "War is not healthy for children and other living things."[31] [32] In a 1971 interview with the Los Angeles Times, Reed said,

In the showtime, we felt [Tony] should serve his country in a noncombatant role. But he wouldn't even accept that, feeling the whole affair was immoral. He didn't trust the government or the military machine. I've learned a lot from Tony.[33]

Reed supported Barry Goldwater in the 1964 U.s.a. presidential election.[34]

In addition to opposing the Vietnam State of war, Reed also opposed nuclear power plants. She supported Democratic Senator Eugene McCarthy from Minnesota in the 1968 presidential election. He was a strong anti-war abet.[35]

She had been diagnosed with the illness three months earlier and told it was at a terminal stage. Her remains are interred in the Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery in Los Angeles.[29] [36]

In a 2011 article, actress Shelley Fabares (who played Mary Rock on The Donna Reed Show) wrote,

[Donna Reed] definitely became my 2nd mother. She was a function model and remains so to this twenty-four hour period. I still periodically hear her voice in my head when I am making a conclusion almost doing something, I hear her urging me on to make the stronger decision of the ii. I just adored her.[43]

Fabares likewise described Reed as "a real Iowa daughter. There is a bedrock decency to people in the Midwest. They are thoughtful and set to help you if something needs to be done. She never lost that Midwest girl."[43]
