Did you know that In 1943 Christine
McIntyre was "discovered" by Columbia comedy shorts producer Hugh
McCollum. Her first two-reeler for Columbia Pictures, under a temporary
contract, was the Slim Summerville western vehicle GARDEN OF EATIN'
(memorable only because of Christine's supporting presense) that
premiered 10/22/1943. In 1944, she apparently signed a ten year
shorts contract with Columbia (renewable by Columbia every year).
