She did it so well the first time that the director needed no second take; and Kay Francis rushed up to throw congratulatory arms about the girl's shoulders. June Travis thus began her screen career at a point for which artists usually spend years of preparation. Her real name is June Dorothea Grabiner. She is the daughter of Harry Grabiner, vice-president of the Chicago White Sox.
