Jane Wyman mini bio extract (including some on RR)
Wyman and Ronald Reagan co-starred in Brother Rat, a film released in 1938. They were married in January, 1940.
Their first child was Maureen Elizabeth Reagan (1941 – 2001).
Their second child was Michael Edward Reagan (March 18, 1945 – ). The Reagans adopted Michael.
Their third child was Christine Reagan. She was born June 26, 1947, apparently 4 weeks premature. Some reports say that she was stillborn. Others say she lived for 9 hours, dying on June 27, 1947.
Their divorce was filed in 1948. President Ronald Reagan is the only president to have been divorced.
While reports state that Jane’s reason for the divorce was a difference in political opinion, others speculate that their bereavement may have played a part. Ronald considered himself a Democrat until the 1950s when he presented bi-partisan speeches for General Electric. Influenced by Lemuel Boulware and his wife Nancy, Ronald formally switched to the Republican party in 1962.
In 1952 Wyman married music composer Fred Karger. In 1955, the two divorced. In 1961 the two remarried, but in 1965, they divorced once again.

Another moving, human drama with loads of emotional impact. Signed Sirk. (Sirk, the magnificent) Jane Wyman plays her part with sincerity and subtlety. How can you not care for her character Helen Phillips. Rock Hudson gives his character power and life. Actually, what's not to like about this one? As a Sirk fan I might be biased, but I'm also right about this (yet) another grand piece of CINEMA. Richard Brody (The New Yorker): "Every step depends on stifled emotions and closely guarded secrets, resulting in a buildup of operatic passion that endows everyday gestures and inflections with grandeur and
