Anna Held
Helene Anna Held (19 March 1872 – 12 August 1918), known professionally as Anna Held, was a Polish-born French stage performer and singer, most often associated with impresario Florenz Ziegfeld, her common-law husband.
Early life
Born in Warsaw, Congress Poland, Russian Empire, she was the daughter of a German-Jewish glove maker, Shimmle (aka Maurice) Held, and his French-Jewish wife, Yvonne Pierre. Sources of her year of birth range from 1865 to 1873, but 1872 has been accepted in general. In 1881, antisemitic pogroms forced the family to flee to Paris, France. When her father's glovemaking business failed, he found work as a janitor, while her mother operated a kosher restaurant. Held began working in the garment industry, then found work as a singer in Jewish theatres in Paris and, later, after her father's death, London, where her roles included the title role in a production by Jacob Adler of Abraham Goldfaden's Shulamith; she was also in Goldfaden's ill-fated Paris troupe, whose cashier stole their money before they ever played publicly.

BARBARA PARKINS as Anna Held sings" I JUST CAN'T MAKE MY EYES BEHAVE" in ZIEGFELD
BARBARA PARKINS portrays the International sensation of the 1900s and first wife of Florenz Ziegfeld [who turned her into a Turn-Of-The-Century sex symbol] and performs one of her signature numbers, a most provocative one in its day. The Emmy nominated actress and winner of the 1965 Photoplay Gold Medal Award for Best Newcomer, became a 60s icon from her starring roles in two of the era's more notorious productions: as Betty Harrington Anderson, the bad girl on televisions Peyton Place [1964] and Ann Wells in the cult classic film Valley of the Dolls [1965]. Ms. Parkins, whose other films include Kremlin Letter, Puppet On A String, The Mephisto Waltz and, most recently, The Jacqueline Suzanne Story, has often said that the role of Anna Held [previously portrayed on screen in the 1936 film...

Anna Held "The Brains Behind the Ziegfeld Follies"

Anna Held: The First Ziegfeld Girl
Who was the first Ziegfeld girl? Arguably it was Anna Held (1872-1918), Florence Ziegfeld's common-law wife he lived with in a 13-room suite in Manhattan's Ansonia Hotel. Bringing risqué jokes, flesh and women from around America on stage, Held was Ziegfeld's partner in crime for 14 years, from 1896 to 1910. Leaving a daughter, Lianne Carrera (1895-1988) from her first marriage to a Paraguayan playboy, Held toured the French trenches during World War I and supposedly had a gown made of 3000 diamonds. Her stunts included bathing in 40 gallons of champagne, 40 gallons of milk and getting her ribs surgically removed for a corset fit.

The singing was a new experience for Barbara, but the dancing proved easy since she had started studying ballet at age six and turned professional at 16, two years later traveling with her Mother to Hollywood to begin studying acting. At first I wanted to be a ballerina and even worked for a year with a Canadian ballet troupe, said Parkins. When I decided to become an actress, I continued the weekly dance lessons to keep fit and because I knew someday they would come in handy. She also admits, Im a romantic, I love the costumes of the 1890s and early 1900s. The laces, satins, ribbons are all very feminine. I have always had the feeling I was born during the wrong era.
ZIEGFELD: The Man and His Women was a giant undertaking for television. The multi-million dollar three-hour move, which also starred Paul Shenar, Samantha Eggar, Pamela Peadon, Valerie Perrine, Inga Swenson, Ron Husmann, Walter Willison, Catherine Jacoby [aka Loria Parker] and others, had its US television premiere on May 21, 1978, as part of NBC TVs Sunday night Big Event series, took three years of planning before anyone stepped onto a soundstage, 32 days of shooting, and months of post production, and is the longest musical ever filmed for television [after network repeats, the original 150-minute version went on to be seen on Showtime, and an edited 100- minute ve rsion, which retains the majority of the musical numbers, has been aired in recent years on TVs Encore Channel.

Helene Anna Held (March 8, 1873 -- August 12, 1918) was a Polish-born stage performer, most often associated with impresario Florenz Ziegfeld, her common-law husband.
Thanks to the Ziegfeld Follies, a wildly popular string of revues from the early 1900s, the name of Florenz Ziegfeld Jr. is familiar to many theater devotees. Somewhat less well known, however, is Anna Held.
Ziegfeld got his taste in clothes, knowledge of stage presentation, and even the idea for his Follies from her. She was one of the first celebrities to win transatlantic fame, and a leading musical stage star for more than two decades. It is no exaggeration to say that she was one of the most remarkable women of her time.
According to Ziegfeld, it was Held who first suggested that he should stage a Folies Bergere-style revue in New York. His first Follies (1907) featured "The Anna Held Girls" without Anna, who was still touring in Miss Innocence. In fact, her only appearance in the Follies series would be was as a flying comet in a film used in the 1910 edition. But Held had done so much to enrich Ziegfeld's sense of fashion and entertainment that it is fair to say she was part of every Follies.
She collapsed onstage in 1918 and died after a few months from multiple myeloma at age 45. She is interred at Cemetery of the Gate of Heaven in Hawthorne, New York. Ziegfeld was castigated by the media he had so studiously courted, for his mistreatment of Held and apparent indifference to her illness, and his notable absence from her funeral.
In 1976 Anna Held's daughter, Liane Carrera (died 1988), opened a museum of her mother's personal and stage items in San Jacinto, California. The museum was looted by robbers and all the displayed material was stolen a few years after it opened.

BARBARA PARKINS is Anna Held, as she performs Wont You Come and Play With Me? one of Helds signature numbers, in the film ZIEGFELD: The Man and His Women. Ms. Parkins, who won the 1965 Photoplay Gold Medal Award for Best Newcomer and became a 60s icon from her starring roles as the notorious Betty Harrington Anderson in Peyton Place [1964] on television and Ann Wells in the cult classic film Valley of the Dolls [1965], has often said that the role of Anna Held [previously portrayed on screen in the 1936 film The Great Ziegfeld by Luise Rainer] is her favorite, because it gave her the opportunity to showcase her singing and dancing talents, as well as her acting ability, as the fragile, and ultimately heart-broken International star who became the first wife of the Legendary Florenz Ziegfeld. She performs two versions of this number in the film, this second at the Haymarket Theatre, New York, afte r Flo Ziegfeld has wooed and wed Held, and begun to turn her into a controversial Turn-Of-The-Century Broadway sex symbol.
The singing was a new experience for Barbara, but the dancing proved easy since she had started studying ballet at age six and turned professional at 16, two years later traveling with her Mother to Hollywood to begin studying acting. At first I wanted to be a ballerina and even worked for a year with a Canadian ballet troupe, said Parkins. When I decided to become an actress, I continued the weekly dance lessons to keep fit and because I knew someday they would come in handy. She also admits, Im a romantic, I love the costumes of the 1890s and early 1900s. The laces, satins, ribbons are all very feminine. I have always had the feeling I was born during the wrong era.
The multi-million dollar three-hour move, which had its US television premiere on May 21, 1978, as part of NBC TVs Sunday night Big Event series, is the longest musical ever filmed for television. [The original 150-minute version was later seen on Showtime, and an edited 100-minute version, retaining most of the musical sequences, has been aired more recently on The Encore Channel].
Headlining as Florenz Ziegfeld was Paul Shenar who began his career on Broadway [Tartuffe, Six Characters In Search of An Author, and Variety Critics-nominee for Tiny Alice and The Three Sisters ], a founding member, actor, director and teacher with William Balls famed American Conservatory Theatre for more than 10 years, who had gained acclaim as Orson Welles, in the TV movie The Night That Panicked America. Starring along with Parkins, as "His Women," were Samantha Eggar [Oscar nominee, Golden Globe/Cannes Film Festival winner for The Collector] as the staunch and lovely Billie Burke; Broadways Pamela Peadon [Celebration, On The Town, Irene, Rodgers & Hart], as beloved 20s icon Marilyn Miller, then receiving acclaim as Cassie in the Los Angeles production of A Chorus Line; Valerie Perrine [Oscar and Golden Globe nominee, Cannes Film Festival/New York Film Critics Award winner for Lenny] as the artistically challenged Lillian Lorraine, who became a Ziegfeld star despite her lack of talent.20Broadway, film, and TV notables guest starring as Ziegfeld stars also includes Inga Swenson [Broadway: New Faces of 56, The First Gentleman (Theatre World Award/Variety Critics Poll Award), 110 In The Shade( Tony Award nomination/London Theatre Critics Award), Baker Street (Tony-nomination)] as Nora Bayes, whose films include Advise & Consent, The Miracle Worker, The Betsy, television appearances include Richard Rodgers Androcles And The Lion, best known to TV fans as housekeeper Gretchen Kraus on Benson; Broadways Ron Husmann [Tony nominee and Theatre World Award winner for Tenderloin, All American, Lovely Ladies, Kind Gentlemen, Irene], as Bayes husband and on stage partner, Jack Norworth, made his feature debut in Love Has Many Faces, vast TV appearances include The Hallmark Hall of Fame [The Music of Richard Rodgers, 1961, et cetera], The Gershwin Years, Days of Our Lives [Tony Merritt], opposite Bernadette Peters in Once Upon a Mattress [1972]; Broadways Walter Willison [Tony Award nominee=2 0and Theatre World Award winner for Richard Rodgers Two By Two, Pippin, Wild and Wonderful, Grand Hotel] had recently starred as Dr. Calvin Campbell in the hit NBC Saturday morning series McDuff, The Talking Dog when cast as Frank Carter, the famed Ziegfeld star who introduced Irving Berlins classic A Pretty Girl is Like a Melody; Catherine Jacoby as Fanny Brice [a role she was familiar with, having recently played the famed diva in Donn Ardens spectacular Hallelujah, Hollywood at the original MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas].

BARBARA PARKINS portrays the International sensation of the 1900s and first wife of Florenz Ziegfeld [who turned her into a Turn-Of-The-Century sex symbol] and performs one of her signature numbers, a most provocative one in its day. The Emmy nominated actress and winner of the 1965 Photoplay Gold Medal Award for Best Newcomer, became a 60s icon from her starring roles in two of the era's more notorious productions: as Betty Harrington Anderson, the bad girl on televisions Peyton Place [1964] and Ann Wells in the cult classic film Valley of the Dolls [1965]. Ms. Parkins, whose other films include Kremlin Letter, Puppet On A String, The Mephisto Waltz and, most recently, The Jacqueline Suzanne Story, has often said that the role of Anna Held [previously portrayed on screen in the 1936 film The Great Ziegfeld by Luise Rainer] is her favorite, because it gave her the opportunity to showcase her singing and dancing talents, as well as her acting ability. The singing was a new experience for Barbara, but the dancing proved easy since she had started studying ballet at age six and turned professional at 16, two years later traveling with her Mother to Hollywood to begin studying acting. At first I wanted to be a ballerina and even worked for a year with a Canadian ballet troupe, said Parkins. When I decided to become an actress, I continued the weekly dance lessons to keep fit and because I knew someday they would come in handy. She also admits, Im a romantic, I love the costumes of the 1890s and early 1900s. The laces, satins, ribbons are all very feminine. I have always had the feeling I was born during the wrong era.
ZIEGFELD: The Man and His Women was a giant undertaking for television. The multi-million dollar three-hour move, which also starred Paul Shenar, Samantha Eggar, Pamela Peadon, Valerie Perrine, Inga Swenson, Ron Husmann, Walter Willison, Catherine Jacoby [aka Loria Parker] and others, had its US television premiere on May 21, 1978, as part of NBC TVs Sunday night Big Event series, took three years of planning before anyone stepped onto a soundstage, 32 days of shooting, and months of post production, and is the longest musical ever filmed for television [after network repeats, the original 150-minute version went on to be seen on Showtime, and an edited 100- minute ve rsion, which retains the majority of the musical numbers, has been aired in recent years on TVs Encore Channel.

Helene Anna Held (March 8, 1873 -- August 12, 1918) was a Polish-born stage performer, most often associated with impresario Florenz Ziegfeld, her common-law husband.
Thanks to the Ziegfeld Follies, a wildly popular string of revues from the early 1900s, the name of Florenz Ziegfeld Jr. is familiar to many theater devotees. Somewhat less well known, however, is Anna Held.
Ziegfeld got his taste in clothes, knowledge of stage presentation, and even the idea for his Follies from her. She was one of the first celebrities to win transatlantic fame, and a leading musical stage star for more than two decades. It is no exaggeration to say that she was one of the most remarkable women of her time.
According to Ziegfeld, it was Held who first suggested that he should stage a Folies Bergere-style revue in New York. His first Follies (1907) featured "The Anna Held Girls" without Anna, who was still touring in Miss Innocence. In fact, her only appearance in the Follies series would be was as a flying comet in a film used in the 1910 edition. But Held had done so much to enrich Ziegfeld's sense of fashion and entertainment that it is fair to say she was part of every Follies.
She collapsed onstage in 1918 and died after a few months from multiple myeloma at age 45. She is interred at Cemetery of the Gate of Heaven in Hawthorne, New York. Ziegfeld was castigated by the media he had so studiously courted, for his mistreatment of Held and apparent indifference to her illness, and his notable absence from her funeral.
In 1976 Anna Held's daughter, Liane Carrera (died 1988), opened a museum of her mother's personal and stage items in San Jacinto, California. The museum was looted by robbers and all the displayed material was stolen a few years after it opened.

Who was the first Ziegfeld girl? Arguably it was Anna Held (1872-1918), Florence Ziegfeld's common-law wife he lived with in a 13-room suite in Manhattan's Ansonia Hotel. Bringing risqué jokes, flesh and women from around America on stage, Held was Ziegfeld's partner in crime for 14 years, from 1896 to 1910. Leaving a daughter, Lianne Carrera (1895-1988) from her first marriage to a Paraguayan playboy, Held toured the French trenches during World War I and supposedly had a gown made of 3000 diamonds. Her stunts included bathing in 40 gallons of champagne, 40 gallons of milk and getting her ribs surgically removed for a corset fit.

Anna Held
Helene Anna Held (19 March 1872 – 12 August 1918), known professionally as Anna Held, was a Polish-born French stage performer and singer, most often associated with impresario Florenz Ziegfeld, her common-law husband.
Early life
Born in Warsaw, Congress Poland, Russian Empire, she was the daughter of a German-Jewish glove maker, Shimmle (aka Maurice) Held, and his French-Jewish wife, Yvonne Pierre. Sources of her year of birth range from 1865 to 1873, but 1872 has been accepted in general. In 1881, antisemitic pogroms forced the family to flee to Paris, France. When her father's glovemaking business failed, he found work as a janitor, while her mother operated a kosher restaurant. Held began working in the garment industry, then found work as a singer in Jewish theatres in Paris and, later, after her father's death, London, where her roles included the title role in a production by Jacob Adler of Abraham Goldfaden's Shulamith; she was also in Goldfaden's ill-fated Paris troupe, whose cashier stole their money before they ever played publicly.

Celui Qui T'a Fait Pleurer
by: Johnny HallydayJamais, jamais
On ne tiendra ma vie
Comme toi, tu vois
Je suis pris
Toujours, l'amour
C'est près de toi
Que mon cœur l'a désiré
Qu'il revienne
Qu'il revienne
Celui qui t'a fait pleurer
Avant
Celui qui t'a fait pleurer
Il n'a pas su t'aimer
Te prouver un jour
Son amour en retour
Te voyant souffrir
Mon cœur t'a prise
À lui, c'est vrai
Sans regret
Qu'il revienne
Qu'il revienne
Celui qui t'a fait pleurer
Avant
Celui qui t'a fait pleurer
Il tenait ton amour
Enfermé dans ses bras
Sans savoir que c'était toi
Mais, c'est trop tard
Oui, tu vois
Il peut pleurer
A présent, tu es à moi
Qu'il revienne
Qu'il revienne
Celui qui t'a fait pleurer
Avant
