Biography

Norma (Drury) Boleslavsky played piano on- or off-camera, and/or acted dramatic roles, in appx. 13 films between 1932 and 1945 (e.g., "Stage Door" in '37), mostly after her husband's early, sudden death in January, 1937. Sometimes she was billed as Norma Boleslavsky, more often as Norma Drury. She also made guest appearances on popular radio programs of the 1930s and 1940s (Bergen-McCarthy, etc.). Norma and Richard Boleslavsky had one child, a son Jan (Janek), who was born in 1935 and died very young in 1962.
