Margia Dean Facts
Married author and architect Felipe Alvarez, who was well known for his singing while accompanying himself on classical guitar on Brazilian TV.
Margia was offered roles on Broadway following the attention she received at the "Miss America Pageant," but instead went back home to finish high school and married her teenage sweetheart, Hal Fischer, in 1939 at age 17. Fischer went on to become a second-string All-American player and well-known basketball coach. The marriage did not last (less than six years) but the two remained friends.
Writer-turned-MGM talent agent Frank Orsatti and famed director Gregory La Cava both saw potential in Margia's career but died before either could make good on their efforts.
