Working in Europe, Held was "discovered" by Florenzo Ziegfeld in London in 1896, and was persuaded by him to return to New York with him. Ziegfeld, a master promoter and user of media, fed American papers semi-lurid or exotic tales of Held, creating a public sensation before she even arrived. From 1896 to 1910 she was one of Broadway's most popular actors. Held and Ziegfeld were common law spouses, until Ziegfeld began an affair in 1909 with another actress and married yet another performer in 1914. GOOD condition. Image of Held very toned and faded, with the words barely visible on the face. Good .
